Park Profiles Week Three

* Alec Harding *


This week's Park Profile features Alec Harding. Alec grew up in Rutland. He works at a local ski shop in the winter. In the off season, Alec enjoys skateboarding as well as riding mountain bikes at Killington Bike Park and Highland. 

I have seen Alec's skiing progress tremendously over the years, so I am happy I was able to catch up with him for some laps last week to get some shots, as he should be very proud of what he has accomplished.
