There's a lot that has to happen to get the venue ready for a world cup race. As soon as today's race finished the organizers were prepping tomorrow's sprint course. I took a break from my training ski today to video some chainsawing. Because I like chainsaws and I like snow.

They're setting up the starting gates for Saturday's sprint. The gates are metal bars that spring open at the start (tip: start with your poles BEHIND the metal bar) and they have to be set into the start line.
