Two-time Olympic Nordic Skier Kris Freeman of Andover, NH is the number one cross-country skier in America and will be heading to the 2010 Games in Vancouver. Kris was at Waterville Valley in late January 2008 and had this to say about the Nordic Center:
"I started skiing at Waterville Valley since I was probably six years old. It's been a big part of my development as a skier. And I've skied the whole world - Finland, Russia, Estonia, China, Japan, and in all honesty, I've never skied trails better than here. So it's always a treat to come and ski at Waterville."
