It’s almost here — the most fun race of the year! If you’ve never participated in this race, ask someone who has and I suspect we’ll see a good number of you here. The course is not brutal, but has enough terrain to be a good race course. We’ve got plenty of snow on the ground (3 ft.+) and no road crossings! We received about 5″ of snow on tuesday which is being tilled in, and with no thaws the surface should be predictably relatively firm new snow. This really is a fun race with great awards, great food, and great random prizes! Chip timing, 50k, 25k, and 10k classic and freestyle races AND a new 50k Skiathlon– a 25k classic leg followed by a 25k skate. When you’re here, stop by the shop and check out all of our Bear Chase Specials on all of our skis, boots,and poles as well as all of our clothing and waxes! Next year you may be the one telling your friends that they really have to ski this race!
