COACHES

GGT: Ben Higgins

Ben is the ski school director for Great Glen Trails Outdoors Center, and new addition to the coaching staff for the BKL Club. Ben grew up in Jefferson, NH having skied with White Mountains Regional through Middle School and High School. After a stint in the Upper Peninsula with Northern Michigan University, he settled into coaching cross country skiing. The past four years Ben was coaching Nordic athletes full time in Mammoth Lakes, California. Returning home to New Hampshire to be involved with skiing is a lifetime goal of his. Cross country skiing has given Ben so much joy, opportunity and excitement; passing that experience on is the best gift yet.
