Les Houches and the Coupe du Monde - Day 2

Day two of the Men's downhill at Les Houches was almost as exciting as day 1 but much, much colder.  At one point in the morning the temperature was -20 ºC aka -4ºF!  And I'm pretty sure it got colder before we left.  These are the hazards of hanging out on a mountain. 

On Sunday the top 30 runs from Saturday moved on to the slalom competition.  This was really cool to see.  They go so fast and have to hit every gate or get disqualified. I forget who won, but he had the best combined time from both days.
