Event Description
This is an NGSL/MntStar/KStar race. It consists of the following events:
- Dual GS
- Skill testing event: moguls, jumping, RCMP speed trap & skills course
Over the last few years, the Sun Peaks Festival was a popular event with Tyee families: in 2009 over 90 Tyee races and their families attended the Festival. The reasons are good snow, big mountain skiing and a lot of fun for the children, on and off snow. Given the local snow conditions, this year’s Festival is the perfect opportunity for good skiing and socializing with your fellow Tyees.
A note for NGSL/KStar/MStar parents who are also K1/K2 parents: given the local skiing conditions, the technical staff is looking into Sun Peaks Festival as an opportunity for K1/K2 skiing/training. Should this happen, you’ll be notified shortly.
