<b>It was dry yesterday during track walk. Not so much today during practice. Danny Hart drops into the mist. “I have a beard of fog that I wear on misty mornings. It’s not cigarette smoke, but I’d understand if you wanted to shave it off and inhale it.

<b>Mist, Roost, DH. Must be MSA.</b> -Tim Bardsley-Smith

Description
It was dry yesterday, but today it was wet! Mont Sainte Anne downhill practice started out wet and slippery, then turned gooey. The groomed-looking course of the track walk is now littered with bomb holes and rocks and the consensus seems to be that of stoke. Mud flinging action comes in hot from the World Cup!
