Crazy weather has forced us to come up with White Pine Stampede 2.0, an alternative race which utilizes the resort’s King of the Hill Nordic trail. This trail has plenty of man-made snow, and traverses the perimeter of their ski hill, Schuss Mountain.
The United States Ski Pole Company is returning to sponsor the Noque this year after a few years of absence due to COVID-19. Please stop by our booth in the Dome on either day and check out our newly released poles.
