Despite falling snow, cold temperatures and cloudy skies, the third annual Pond Skim competition drew a huge crowd to Whitefish Mountain Resort on Saturday. All 60 spots for skimmers sold out, and more than 1,000 guests came to witness the wacky shenanigans of the pond riders. The rowdy hillside full spectators was treated to costumes ranging from Batwoman to Britney Spears, and from Lederhosen to Leisure Suits, all of which were soaked by the end of the day. Erik Wilson won first prize, $1,000 cash, for the second year in a row. The pond was 85 feet long and 25 feet wide, and many skiers and snowboarders exploded upon entry to the delight of the onlookers. It was a fitting end to a great season.
