2014 Potato Cup
Potato Cup Official Results 2014
I would like to thank everyone that made this year’s Potato Cup a successful day. It was a fitting end to a trying season demonstrating what Pocatello skiers are made of. The Potato Cup was originally scheduled for early January to accommodate changes in the intermountain citizen race schedule largely due to senior Nationals at Soldier Hollow. We were barely skiing then so we opted to reschedule for March 1st. The 8 weeks between these two dates were decent but March 1st turned out to be the worst of these two dates. There was much shoveling done during the week before between the winter rains. On top of that actual temperatures were much warmer than predicted for the entire week. After a rainy Friday night and rainy Saturday morning I met Wesley Savill and Andre Mayo in the muddy parking lot. They came from from Park City enroute to Canada. I asked their thoughts on racing in the rain, “we’ve certainly raced in worse”. This made my day and the race was on. The snow that was falling was a mix of mashed potatoes and Elmer’s glue. It may have been the first race at Mink Creek that required V2 to get down the hills. Luckily the areas with 3” of slush offered better gliding. Everyone was smiles though back in the yurt and went home happy, well fed and with bonus character points.
Hats off to everyone that contributed . Let me know if I forgot someone and I’ll make the correction.
Sponsors: please thank and support them!
