Our annual Moose Marathon is around the corner!
Mass start, free technique.
Distances: 1.5 km, 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, and 30 km
Register (name and race distance) by emailing Travis, or register in the lodge on race day before 10 a.m. All JackRabbits kids are automatically registered, but Travis needs to know the distance they are skiing. All other participants: race fee is $10, includes registration, chocolate bar at the finish line, and soup & bun for lunch. Race fee is payable (cash or cheque only) in the lodge prior to race.
For further details, refer to race notice here.
Family Day in BC is Monday, Feb. 18. The rental shed will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. If anyone wants to organize something--potluck, wiener roast, activities, ski lessons, etc.--let me know and I will post it online and send out a message to the rest of our ski family.
AND as a fundraiser for the new rental shed (and maybe to start an annual event!?), we and Sherwood Mountain Brewhouse are organizing a "Sherwood Tour de Soup" for Sunday, March 3rd. 8 different restaurants in Kitimat and Terrace are making soup for this event, and we are planning a few other details that will make it fun for everyone. Mark your calendars and wait for details that will be sent out soon.
That's it! Stay tuned! And enjoy those trails!!
Hello there folks. Hope you have been getting out there to burn some calories and generate some heat in these cool but super sunny conditions. Looking ahead in two weekends from now is the Moose Marathon :) So looking to round up some volunteers for this mellow fun race. If you think you would like to help out drop Travis a note (email here). Some jobs could happen before race start and you could still head out to do your own distance as well.
Registration will open up around 9:30 like usual. 30 K’ers have to head out around 10 am. The rest of the crowd will start out at 11. We should be all wrapped up by about 1 pm again. This is a free technique type race, so classic or skate style permitted…what ever you like.
Race distances will be 1.5, 5, 10, 15 or 30 K. Push yourself or ski it with your friends. Let me know how far you plan to ski to get you on the registration list. All rabbits kids get registered automatically, you just have to tell me how far your child wants to ski. Again mail me at the link above.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Travis

Happy New Year, skiers! We’ve finally got the snow we’ve all been dreaming of so let’s all get out and enjoy it!
First off: We have a record 412 members! Welcome to all the newcomers! It’s wonderful to see so many new faces on the trails. Feel free to come into the lodge – make yourself some hot chocolate or tea and enjoy the fire. (Light one if it’s not already burning). The water key is kept in the drawer to the left of the stove. Lock the tap when you are leaving the lodge.
If you are a new skier: Think about coming out for a lesson on Saturday mornings, 10:30 a.m. (only on the following dates: Jan. 19; Feb. 2, 9, 16; and March 2, 9). These lessons are free for members, $10 for non-members.
Hi folks, snow is on the ground, soggy as it may be but still good for skiing :) The Snow Valley Open (our annual classic ski race) is soon upon us in two weekends…Saturday the 26th. So if you would like to help out in some capacity I would love to have you. Event start will be at 11, registration will open up about 9:30 and should be all wrapped up by 1.
So will be looking for registration helpers, start line and finish line crew, a few course controllers, bib recovery team and choco bar hand-er-outers, and of course food and folks for the Snowflake Cafe.
So if you feel you can be of assistance in any capacity please let me know! email me and I will find a job for you :)
Cheers, and chat soon.
Travis Carter, Chief of Race
