There is home basketball on Saturday, so Lot 24 will be monitored. Nordic skiing guests do not have to pay for parking - let the attendant know you are there for the Nordic ski races.

Wax Rooms and Facilities

The wax rooms at the trailhead will be available. Coaches should email team name and team roster size to Michigan Tech Head Coach Tom Monahan Smith (thjsmith@mtu.edu) so indoor wax rooms can be assigned accordingly. Deadline is Februrary 11, 2025.
The Student Development Complex, including shower facilities, are open to skiers and coaches. The SDC is a short walk from the trailhead and also has plenty of parking.

Field of Play Access

Coaches, team service support and industry suppliers must also register through the CXC website. Membership status with U.S. Ski & Snowboard will be automatically verified during registration. Bring your NNF/USSS coach bib to ensure course access.
