About the Event

Citizen Racers
The 15k races will each consist of one loop, which goes out past the Sugarbush Cabin, up to the Summit, with views of Lake Superior, and down The Buzz.  The 30k races will ski that loop twice.  There will be two on-course aid stations with water, so 15k skiers will pass 2 aid stations, and the 30 skiers will pass 5 aid stations (2 on course each lap, one at the start/finish area).  

Race Options:
15lk Classic
15k Skate
30k Skate
30k Classic
30k Skiathlon (classic and skate)

Citizen Registration Fee:
Race registration will be $50 for all citizen races through January 15th.  $60 from January 16th to January 29th, and $70 January 30-Feb 1.  Skiers may register on race day. All registered citizen racers will receive race swag and a piece of locally made pie.  Overall race winners will receive a whole pie.  There are also age group awards for each race.  

Youth Racers:
Youth skiers who are on a ski team should sign up for the race with their team.  Youth skiers who are not part of a team can register online for $10.
3.5k 4th-8th grade (Freestyle:  Stake or Classic technique allowed)
7k 9th-12th grade (Freestyle:  Stake or Classic technique allowed)

College Skiers:
The Midwest Collegiate Ski Association will hold a competitive college race for the league in conjunction with the Summit Race, with a separate start for the college division skiathlon.  College skiers should register with their team, and may choose to register for any of the races.   College aged skiers who are not a part of an MCSA team should contact race director Kate Ullman to access the college registration fee.
