VIRTUAL BIRKIE AT SNOWFLAKE This year, skiers participating in the American Birkebeiner, Korteloppet, and Prince Haakon events have a “Virtual” option, to ski the event at a venue other than Cable-Hayward.

WILL THERE BE A 2020/21 SKI SEASON? Absolutely, Yes! We have been maintaining and improving the trails since June, and will complete the last milestones in pre-season preparation by the end of October. Gotta be ready for a Halloween snowstorm!
