Even a thick fog and frigid

temperatures couldn’t slow down retired Telemark racer Kelsey

Schmid-Sommer.

The five-time national champion edged

local racer and U.S. Regional team memeber Maggie Doherty to win

the women’s elite division on Saturday at the Don K Subaru Sprint

Classic at Whitefish Mountain Resort.

David Hobbs, formerly of White-fish,

won the men’s elite division by a whopping 15 seconds. Hobbs

currently lives in Missoula.

Racers started near Big Mountain’s

summit, then launched off a jump before hitting gates in Ptarmigan

Bowl and finishing near the bottom of Chair 5 with a 360-degree

turn.
