Monthly Strava Challenge
A big thanks to True Outdoors in Kamloops who have generously sponsored this month's Challenge. If you're in the store, please mention that and thank them for their support!

January Strava Challenge

Participants are eligible for draw prizes based on a random draw from all participants at the end of the Challenge. The Segment will appear on your Strava as "SPNC January Challenge". The challenge goes until January 31st. In order for us to see you to enter you in the draw, you must make the activity public (in the Menu for "Who Can See", click "Everyone").
We plan to post a different course every month. Cruise it, race it, or stop for lunch along the way. Everyone who skis the route is eligible for the draw. Here is the route:
  • Start at the very top of Whiskey Jack (junction with McGillivray Lake Trail, opposite Moose Track).
  • Go down  Whiskey Jack
  • At En Garde, turn immediately hard right onto Blue Grouse, (now going uphill)
  • Veer left off Blue Grouse onto Nut Hatch and continue all the way to Raven Return (NOT RAVEN RAMBLE) then turn right down Raven Return
  • At the end of Raven Return, where it joins the bottom of Raven Ramble, take a quick jog to the right to Sigge's Shortcut and then onto Otter Loop
  • Take Otter Loop all the way around to MLT (don't turn onto Great Grey as we did last time, so keep right at the first junction)
  • Turn left onto MLT and go downhill to the Whisky Jack junction where you started.



                                  December Strava Challenge
Here is the December route in case you want to ski it for interest (it's almost exactly 5 km):
  • Start at the Junction of Moose Track and McGillivray Lake Trail
  • Go up McGillivray Lake Trail and turn Right onto Otter Loop
  • Ski all the way around Otter Loop to McGillivray Lake Trail
  • Ski up Blue Grouse, then turn right on Chickadee
  • Turn right on Raven Ramble
  • Turn right onto Sigge's Shortcut then onto Otter Loop
  • Ski most of the way around Otter Loop then turn left onto Great Grey
  • Take Great Grey to Heinz's Way to Holy Cow, then turn right down Holy Cow
  • Ski down Holy Cow onto Moose Track and continue on Moose Track back to the start point on McGillivray Lake Trail
