Seasonal Tour - This tour generally runs from July to mid September.  We will operate outside of these dates if weather allows.

Start your day with a sled dog tour commencing with an introduction to the world of sled dogs, the equipment and of course the dogs themselves. Learn how to set up your own team and interact with the dogs while you learn the ropes from one of our instructors. Then it is your turn to take the team for a spin, taking command of your own team of Huskies and driving them along the beautiful trails provided by the Snow Farm. Nothing but the silence of the mountains and the sound of the dogs feet, their breath and your runners gliding through the snow.

Once your sled dog tour is complete enjoy a buffet lunch in the comforts of the Snow Lodge overlooking the trail system.

After lunch it is time to get you back on the trails but this time on a set of cross country skis.  After getting fitted out with your skis you will have a group cross country ski lesson lasting approximately an hour.  After that it is your chance to explore the trail system on your own until the mountain closes at 1600.
