📣 MTU SPRING LOPPET Event Info!!! 📣
📍: Michigan Tech Trails
⏱️: Saturday, April 12th @ 9:30am
The MTU Spring Loppet will be a skate only event on a featured 5km course. Participants get to choose your race/ski distance of 5km, 10km, 15km or 20km! All participants will mass start together at 9:30am, regardless of the distance you choose to ski. For all skiers this will be a self-timed event. Everyone will get an MTU race bib that you get to keep as your participation prize, and we will provide pizza for all participants after you ski the loppet! There will also be a self-provided feed station at the 5km lap where you can stage your own race feeds and any you may like to share.
All participants must register at the Student Development Complex Ticketing Office to get your race bib before the event. Registration is $10, and also includes your trail pass. This is a fundraiser for the MTU Nordic Ski Team, thank you for supporting the Nordic Huskies!
The event will start/finish/and lap in the Michigan Tech Trails stadium. The course goes around Gateway Loop > Skidder downhill > Downunder (making a turn to start your long climb at the end of Downunder) > back up Skidder > Holy Wah cut through > Balsam > Linden.
Please share the news about this event with your fellow ski friends so we get as many people out to enjoy the last ski event of the season!
