Whiteface Sky Races

With heavy hearts, minds, and spirits, we convey without adequate words or sentiments, the loss of one of our own, Nick Marshak, on the mountain this past Sunday. While we'll continue to struggle to process it, we find solace only in understanding that Nick died doing something, and surrounded by a community, that he loved. That his mind, spirit, and resolve, carried him further than his body ended up allowing, shutting down in the, and his, final mile. Please take a moment ...to glimpse a bit of who Nick was in this story: http://www.adirondackdailyenterprise.com//the-way-he-died/ Please, if able, make a contribution to his fund, and share within your communities for that cause: https://www.gofundme.com/with-love-for-nick-marshak
