What do you get when you mix six inches of snow with uncleared downtown roads and a handful of nordic ski fanatics? An impromptu Birkebeiner, of course! Being the first of this seasonally-annual event, the attendance was somewhat... low. However, the determination and spirit of the handful of participants more than made up for the lack of bodies!
In joyous celebration of the winter gods, humans reclaimed the roads! Even a photographer from the Oregonian was there, so with luck, this event will takeoff and become a somewhat beloved urban tradition!
