Kulshan Randonée
Our biggest race of the season is officially 12 days away! This race includes 11,000 feet of gain over 22 miles, and parties of three get to challenge themselves in a skimo race unlike any other in North America. We have 21 strong teams racing from all over the US with a sophisticated background in glacier travel and ski mountaineering, making it an exciting event. Since this lengthy race is deep in the backcountry, we will have GPS tracking so you can witness live updates from the race and see which teams are coming out ahead. Here is our roster for those of you interested in the stars on the mountain:
Join our SnowGoat Family!
These races, events, and community are not here because of you, they are you. The team behind the scenes organizing, hosting, and advocating, are passionate ski mountaineers just like yourself. We have found the joy in helping foster the community surrounding the sport and are excited to be a part of it all!
While your feet switch over to from skis to shoes, spend some time on your next mountain adventure contemplating if you would like to join our SnowGoat Family and be a part of the action. Next season we will have positions within the organization opening up; descriptions on our website. Our Board of Directors meets the first Monday of the month throughout the season; any new members will be voted in at our September Annual Meeting.
