5th Annual Luggi Foeger Uphill / Downhill Festival & SkiMo Race

NEW DATE — Looking at the weather forecast for this weekend and beyond (see below), we have made the decision to move the SkiMo race to this Sunday, March 24 (instead of Saturday, March 23). The forecast for Saturday is looking like pretty steady snowfall and wind gusts up to 60+ mph at higher elevations. And while we know that Luggi competitors are hardy souls, those kinds of conditions would likely scare away quite a few folks.

The Lake Tahoe Basin’s premier SkiMo competition and an incredibly family-friendly event. Competitors race to the top of the mountain using whatever human-powered method you prefer – skins, snowshoes, running shoes, etc. – then ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or run back down to the finish line. For those of a less competitive nature, a recreational course to mid-mountain is available. The event will also include fun activities in the base area including ski boot races, live music, an awards ceremony, and more! Then, the fun continues with a winter-wildlife snowshoe hike Sunday morning.

*Sorry, no sledding allowed.
