Outdoor Explorer Series: Intro to Cross Country Skiing (In collaboration with the Hoofer Outing Club)
Getting outside during winter in Wisconsin can be a bit challenging… cross-country skiing to the rescue! We will learn about the basics of xc skiing in the classroom, then move onto the lake for some hands-on practice. Join us on this introductory course to learn the ins and outs of this winter activity.
Upon completion of this class, participants will:
* Learn about what cross-country skiing is and why it is popular
* Understand the difference between classic and skate skiing
* Learn about what gear is needed to have a successful trip
* Get hands-on practice on cross-country skis
*** Cross-country skiing gear will be provided for practice purposes at this event ****
