Up North the woods take on a special serenity when they become snow covered in winter. And one of the best ways to experience this scenic natural quietude is to cruise through the forest on cross-country skis. Designed for beginners looking to try the sport for the first time as well as for those who have some skiing experience, this class will give you all the skills necessary to gracefully and confidently ski the many groomed and tracked beginner trails located
throughout the Northwoods.
Instruction will also include some indoor time to cover the proper equipment and clothing for cross-country skiing and some good pre-ski stretches that lend themselves to an enjoyable outdoor experience. Class runs two consecutive Fridays.
