Nordic Bus Trips
Join a bus load of friendly fellow skiers for a Nordic ski trip. Leave the driving to an expert so that you can concentrate your energy on skiing, eating, drinking and socializing. The cost is very reasonable. The schedule includes trips of a single day, a weekend, and a five-day trip to the mountains.
Most trips, with the exception of the Canmore trip, originate in the parking lot south of the SaskPower head office, between Scarth and Hamilton Streets north of 13th Avenue. The bus will leave the lot at 8:00 AM sharp, so leave 20 to 30 minutes to stow your ski equipment and other gear, choose a seat, and get yourself on the passenger list.
A typical day trip arrives at the ski trails in late morning, depending on distance. Pack a lunch so you can eat on the bus or on the trail. You may ski up to a time set by your trip leader, typically between 3:30 and 4:30. This is followed by a trip to a restaurant for supper, and a ride back to where we started. If the trip includes a loppet, the loppet organizers typically arrange the supper.
Multi-day trips will involve will involve staying at a hotel, and perhaps an evening social event or two.
Any trip will be subject to current pandemic restrictions at the time of the event.
