Dog Skijoring

Please check back in the fall for Winter 2013/14 program dates.

What is Skijoring? Skijoring is cross country skiing while being attached to your dog with a harness. At Gold Run Nordic Center, we offer ski joring clinics, events and equipment rentals so you can try the sport !

 

Skijoring Workshop (Ages 10 & Up)

Join Louisa Morrissey with Skijor-N-More to learn the sport with your best bud on four legs. The basic intro will cover dog breeds, harness fits, pulling techniques as well as snow and weather factors. Learn about how to keep your dog healthy and happy with this team sport. Start off the right way, in a controlled environment, on groomed trails, then take your skills to the popular front/backcountry Summit County Trailheads. Participants must be able to cross country ski 5km over an hour and be comfortable stopping and changing directions. Lessons are available at Gold Run to prepare. Ski Rental equipment is available for rent at half price. Harnesses and belts are included for the clinic.  Cost of each session is $40.  Your dog must be at least a year old, call GRNC for more information or with questions.
