Work with the course began in the summer already, off-season preparation was carried out. Of course, weather and rain affect the state of the snow cushion. But we fight for every snowflake!

It has been snowing all last week, the ra-track is already running along the entire course. The configuration of Demino course will be the same - two 25 kilometers laps. By the beginning of February we plan to close the fifteen-kilometer section and take up the “ten” along the Koloksha River. Specialists from school № 4 repaired the bridge in the ravine at the 12th kilometer. We are waiting for the keys and streams to freeze there.

The difficult weather conditions do not scare us. Remember, in 2011 and 2012, snow fell at the last moment before the competition and in 2013 the skiers had to run ankle-deep in the snow. The weather is unpredictable, but we are sure that winter will take its toll.
