Details on the Saturday and Sunday mornings meeting time and place will be arranged closer to the weekend of the trip.
We'll explore Echo Ridge's extensive and varied trail system (48% easy, 28% intermediate, and 23% advanced). Both classic and skate skiers are welcome.
Participants should be capable of skiing intermediate (blue) trails and sustaining a moderate pace for several hours. If you have any questions about the suitability of your skills and experience for this trip, please ask. For more information on the trail system see the Lake Chelan Nordic Club website and for the current grooming report see Nordic Pulse.
If there is interest in doing so, we'll reserve a condo reserved for Saturday night (and optionally Friday night, for those arriving Friday) in Manson, 12 miles from Echo Ridge, and carpool or caravan from Chelan or Manson to the ski area.
Day ski passes are $15 and can be purchased by cash or check (no credit cards) at self-service trailhead kiosks.
