Sunriver, Oregon
Feb. 3-6, Mon-Thu
All Abilities
Do you enjoy skiing without the crowds? Come join this mid-week trip. The snow in Central Oregon is known to be powdery, plentiful and dry. So join your fellow cross-country skiers to the sunny side of the state for three nights at Sunriver Resort 20 miles south of Bend for three plus days of skiing at and around Mt. Bachelor. We can ski from any of the Sno-parks near the mountain or at the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center. There is something for everyone in this area; groomed trails, skating, and backcountry or a mix.
We will carpool to Sunriver and to the trailheads each day and will share potluck dinners. Everyone will provide their own breakfasts and lunches. Relax after skiing by the fireplace or in our house’s hot tub.
This trip is so flexible allowing for skiing on the way over and/or back, whether you drive over Mt. Hood or Santiam Pass. If the snow isn’t ideal there is always the High Desert Museum or other places in Bend. On the Sunriver grounds itself there are many walking trails. Come join 9 of your Nordic Club friends for a fun time in a beautiful setting!
