Deno Johnson, head coach for the highly successful Forest Lake ski team, runs the summer Nordicwerks program. The training sessions now attract skiers from as far away as Mora, as well as local schools like White Bear Lake and Stillwater. On Monday evenings, the group competes in a 7K time trial on the quiet backroads south of Scandia. The group avoided most of the rough weather over the Twin Cities and set a large number of personal records in the classical time trial this week.
