Thanks. :-) Just fyi, this year they went to Bend (not super high), wildfire smoke sucked, went to Eugene, still sucked, and came home. Don't think they've done high-altitude pre-season camps for a few years now. But those camps are only 10 days or thereabouts so are really for team bonding and getting some work in and not long enough for any meaningful altitude impact. They always open with a local race in early Sept to satisfy NCAA requirements then off they go to camp.

Farm Team great to have you posting here

Both teams trained at altitude during period of new class on campus.  Almost always they start the XC training at Tahoe or Mamouth
