    This is a fundraiser to support the Glacier Nordic Ski Team and Youth Programs. Last year, our 18 and under winter programs comprised of over 250 kids ages 4-18 years old. We offer a variety of options with affordable rentals to ease the cost of entry into skiing.

    Outside of programs, Glacier Nordic Club groom trails at the Big Mountain Trail Head, Whitefish Lake Golf Course (Glacier Nordic Center), Meadow Lake Golf Course (Meadow Lake Nordic Trails), Muldown Elementary, and Round Meadow. Two of those venues have funding assistance through grants, and Muldown is a free community offering to support youth health. Grooming trails are extremely expensive, and overall club operations, tools, gear, machinery and staffing are funded by your support through a trail pass, season memberships, and donations. Glacier Nordic Club also runs the Glacier Nordic Shop which is stationed seasonally at the Whitefish Lake Golf Course, and provides rentals and lessons for all.

    Thank you to our Race Sponsors!
