Spokane Nordic Winterfest

There are currently no future events scheduled.
Join the Spokane Nordic Ski Association for a fun day full of activities in the cross country ski area of Mt. Spokane.

This annual event is the only day all year that SNSA offers its lessons to non-members, so it’s a great opportunity for new skiers to get a taste of what SNSA has to offer while learning a few of the basics. Activities include lessons, adaptive demos, and a treasure hunt.
