The Mount Hood Racing season is off to a confusing start due to lack of snow followed by a huge blizzard, but racers did manage to squeeze in a couple of slalom competitions on Saturday.
Jenna Jansky of Jesuit High and Jack Botti of Sunset took first in the first Metro Ski League race of 2014 on Pucci at Timberline Saturday.
Michel Macedo of Cascade Winter Sports Club and Lili Bouchard of Mount Bachelor Sports Education Foundation were the top finishers in the Winterstart slalom at Meadows for top junior racers.
Both races were held in challenging conditions, with tough visibility, deep snow and ruts, not to mention large lift lines to get back up the hill. The junior varsity Metro League competitors did not get to complete their second run after Timberline shut down its lifts at about 2 pm Saturday.
