Nearly 70 skiers descended for the second year in a row on the small town of Mora for the 2010 Minnesota Skinnyski Series end-of-year-banquet, Metro Youth Super Series awards ceremony, and the Minnesota Nordic Ski Association Lifetime Achievement Awards. The beautiful Vasaloppet Nordic Center served as the host to a night of fun, food, and camaraderie.

The 2010 Minnesota Skinnyski Series concluded this past weekend under the watchful eyes of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox in Bemidji, MN for the Minnesota Finlandia.  Skiers were treated to perfect weather and some of the best snow conditions Bemidji has experienced in years.  Over 200 skiers showed up for the weekend of events, with the 25km pursuit serving once again as the MiSSeries qualifier event.
