2019 COCHRAN'S NORDIC CROSS CHALLENGE - April 7, 2019
Celebrate your passion for skiing and your love of Cochran's in this spring skiing event.
This is Cochran's Ski area's last big event of the season!
Nordic and alpine skiers from past and present Olympians, elite high school and college level racers, junior champions, families and recreational aficionados of all ages will come in droves from all over the northeast to try their luck at skiing the one-of-a-kind nordic cross course. It is the most exciting fusion of cross-country and downhill skiing you'll ever be part of. Some will race in costumes with capes and hats, other in sleek racing suits but all will race with as much gusto as they can muster.
Here is how it works: At one minute intervals, 5 racers at a time will leave the start at the top of Cochran's ski slopes and wind their way down a circuitous custom designed course of turns, jumps, rolls, and bumps all on one pair of nordic skis, and all going for gold. It's challenging, hilarious and memorable!! Perfect for team bonding, family togetherness, and for exhibiting skiing skills you never knew you had!
Don't want to race? Come anyways! Enthusiastic spectators are welcome and encouraged to cheer loudly!
