NELSON – Snow Sculpture Workshop
- 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
This explorer day we will get a chance to make snow sculptures! Our mentor Keith, has been making snow sculptures at the Castlegar Nordic Ski Area for a few years. We will get a chance to learn how large snow sculptures are made as well as try making our own sculptures.
Warm drinks will be provided – please bring your own mugs
We will be meeting at the Mud Lake Trailhead (Viking Centre). There is a parking lot and outhouses on site. We will be able to use the Viking Centre as a place to warm up and eat snacks and lunch. We will have to walk a small distance on a snow-covered trail to get the to snow sculpture location. Dogs are not allowed so please keep the furry friends at home. There is no cell service at this location.
A note on trail etiquette: Please be careful to make minimal impact on the trails and make sure they’re not blocked off to skiers.
If you would like to ski after the event please ensure you have paid the appropriate day-use fees. There is a small toboggan hill so some sleds might be fun for after the event.
