The view from part way up Mount Revelstoke looking down at the town.

The weather was perfect for the first few days, and the team got lucky with the timing of rain in the second half of the week.

The road up Mount Revelstoke climbs about 1500m in 26km, and is the perfect training site for uphill roller skiing. The trip up takes over two hours at an average grade of about 5.5%.

An afternoon core session in at the hotel that houses mostly CP Rail workers has a few observers wondering what kind of circus was in town.

Revelstoke is major bear country, but there were fortunately no encounters.

Coach Chris Jeffries pounding yet another homer for the "Old Team".

The "Young Team" defense was left wondering how to counter years of skill and experience.

New Academy coach Jon Arne Enevoldsen does some road side technique work in the afternoon.

The boys warm up for a running and bounding threshold workout.
