Yosemite National Park, Glacier Point

 A select group of ten cross country skiers set out toward Glacier Point, 21 miles round trip, in a day. Luckily, we had a fast snow track for the first half, and then it turned into sunburn weather. I didn't get photos of everybody, but I tended to shoot the ones that were dressed in brighter colors, or the ones who weren't moving past me so quickly when I had my camera out.
