Eat, Ski & Be Merry is a festive candle-lit evening ski along a groomed 2.5k course at the Frisco Nordic Center.
Skiers glide between four bonfire stops, each offering a snack and a beverage of choice, for a cozy winter-night outing under the stars. The gentle, groomed loop is friendly for a range of abilities, and the mood is pure mountain magic once the candles are lit.
Timed entries keep the trail flowing, so you can enjoy each bonfire stop without a crowd. Finish the evening with dessert and a warm drink among friends.
Proceeds benefit the Team Summit Nordic Program, so a glowing night on the snow also supports local youth skiing.
