Join us for a Cross Country Ski Day! This trip is a chance to slow down, build foundational skiing skills, and enjoy the beauty of winter. No prior cross-country skiing experience is required; this trip is designed for beginners and those looking to build confidence on skis. We’ll take time for instruction, breaks, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the scenery.

***Dressing in appropriate layers is essential for comfort and safety during high output aerobic winter activities.  Be sure to wear wool or synthetic fabrics only (NO COTTON).  You should have a light wicking base-layer (long johns/janes), a light windproof layer (soft shell or windbreaker), a warm insulating layer (fleece, wool or puffy jacket), and depending on the forecast, a sturdy shell (rain jacket) is appropriate.  Heavy ski jackets are NOT recommended.
