Wapiti-Irkie - NEW "one-time / pop up" Event!

• Sunday, February 24th @ 9:30am
• An informal "Birkie" substitute for those who trained (and even for those who didn't!!) for the Feb 9th Birkie in Edmonton that was cancelled due to the cold. Because it is a spontaneous informal event, skiers in longer distances are expected to be mainly self supported. This is a "pop up" event and should not be confused with the Sveinungsgaard Loppet on March 9th. 

• Distance options (as per original Birkie event): 5km (BlueMoon / Half Moon), 13km, 31km or 55km (all on North trails).
• The 13, 31 and 55km distances will be composed of loops on the groomed North trails (whichever are in best condition). A course map will be available Saturday 23rd Feb. 
• Start time: 9:30am for all distances
• Registration: See self registration sheet on the lodge bulletin board (please indicate participation by Sat 23rd if possible) or in person Sunday morning before 9:00am. 
• Fees: $5 cash to be paid Sunday morning before 9:00am
• Participants are expected to check in and check out when you have finished your distance.
• Timing provided for 5km and 13km distances. Those in 31km and 55km will be self timed (see clock in stadium) and self reported. There will not be bibs or medals for any event - this is more of a personal challenge than a race.
• Support: there will be snack and water stations in the main stadium and north parking lot. Participants can leave their own nutrition in the rubber maid totes at both locations. 
• Important! Don't forget to check OUT at the lodge when you have completed your chosen distance!! We don't want to send out a search party while you are sitting at home!!
