    How we're rebuilding Vasaloppet, part 2

    In November 2022, Vasaloppet's big central warehouse burned down and the flames destroyed almost all the materials needed to run races in the Vasaloppet Arena. That very same day, work started to build and buy new materials and now, with just under six weeks left until Vasaloppet's Winter Week 2023, almost everything is ready – including hundreds of new signs, 2,000 metres of fences and large, new cooking vessels for the classic blueberry soup.
