Itinerary:

This trip is for strong intermediate to advanced skiers who can find their own way along the trails if necessary. We’ll probably split into 2 groups. The faster skiers will do 35km in about 4 hours, including at least 2 large hills. For those that don’t want to go so far or fast, there are options to take shorter routes, down to about 25km.

Distance: 25 - 35 km
Duration: 4-5 hours (plus vehicle travel time, about 1.5 hours each way)
Car Pool: Shouldice Park, by the arena. The departure time is 0930. Please be there by 0920 so we have enough time to put people and gear together for the car pool and still leave by 0930.

XC skis and wax
Snacks and/or lunch
Lots to drink
