(Note: this is one of six galleries of pictures for the entire week; go up one level, to "Sports" to locate the others.)

The 2008 US National Cross Country Ski Championships were held at the Michigan Tech Nordic Trails in early January. Here are general shots of the stadium area and activities, especially of the many volunteers who made the event possible. These pics may be downloaded for free for personal use and non-profit publication. Other galleries available here feature competition and awards podium photos, but downloads will be for a fee. High quality prints and photo products may be ordered through this site, and a portion of the sales proceeds will benefit the Michigan Tech Nordic Trails.
