People in Alaska celebrate the end of winter and the beginning of spring with an event that combines skiing on both snow and water. On Saturday, competitors at the 42nd annual "Slush Cup" in Girdwood, Alaska attempted to ski down a mountain, then cross a 27-meter pond. Some succeeded, but most failed.
