FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Telemark to groom trails for two more weekends
Enjoying spring skiing on the Telemark Resort trails
|
The blessing of a bountiful snow winter is paying dividends in some great
spring skiing. Skiers feel like champions as they fly over the fast trails.
To keep the fun going Telemark Resort has decided to extend the ski season
two weekends beyond the planned St. Urho/St. Patrick closing. Twenty five
kilometers will be tilled and groomed for skating and classical skiing
Friday afternoon through Sunday, March 23 - 25 and March 31 - April 1.
There is still over a foot of packed snow on the trails. The five groomed
trails include the 2, 4, 5 & 7 K Birkebeiner loops, 5 K Sven Wiik World Cup
Trail and 10 K Caldwell World Cup Trail, 10 K of Kortelopet Trail (from
the Tony Wise Trail into the lodge), 9 K Tony Wise Trail, 6 K of the John
Bauer Trail (same as the Kortelopet). Other trails still have good cover
and offer good crust skiing in the morning and a soft surface with a firm
base in the afternoons. The extensive snowshoe trail system remains in good
shape and the tubing and snowboarding slopes will be open as well. For
information contact Telemark Resort at 877/798-4718 or visit at
