2019 Sierra Ski-O : Round 1

February 9 - 10
Lake Tahoe, CA


News

Feb 9, 9pm: We are cancelling the Sunday race at RG. The highway is closed because of zero visibility, its going to dump a couple feet overnight, and there's no way we could get fun courses and accurate maps made by race time tomorrow. If anyone really needs to get out and ski, sounds like the Tahoe Donner Challenge is still on for tomorrow, its a simple version of orienteering.

Feb 9, 7am: Saturday is looking great at TXC! Stay tuned for the status of Sunday, we're considering the forecast to see if it will go ahead. We'll post here with info.
