  • Combination of single track, technical hiking trails and alpine ski runs. Sport Course: Total elevation gain 251m.  Enduro Course: Total elevation gain 642m.

smart move to postpone

As host of the orientation run, I ran the short course on Friday and several parts of it were dangerous/impassible.  I could've used my snowshoes in places.

I look forward to hosting once the snowpack is melted.

Cheers!
