Entries are now open for our Snow Rogaine next Sunday, 17th August and we are going ahead despite the lack of snow so far this season. We are keeping our options open and either will run this event as an event on foot (with no trail passes or skis required) or a ski touring/ cross country ski/ snow shoe event. We will be setting the controls to maximise the existing snow, and with any luck give some skiing/ boarding/ sliding/ snowshoeing/ running up on the Pisa Range.This will be a fun event with a prize giving, some excellent prizes from RAB and MT Outdoors, a bbq to finish. It's a great opportunity to practice your navigation in the mountains if you are training for Spring Challenge, Godzone or are just keen to improve. Due to the exposed mountain environment this event takes place in we will not accept individual entries and all competitors will be required to carry a cell phone and some compulsory emergency gear.
If the Snowfarm gets more snow later this week and the trails are open next weekend you will need to get trail passes for the day, and use either skis/board/snowshoes on trail (ie no running shoes). Trail passed will be available through the Snowfarm website specifically for this event at a discounted price. Check our website early next week for an update on this and also we will email our competitors with information about this. Otherwise if the trails are officially closed, no trail pass will be required and running shoes may be worn on the trails.
