The 2009 Ski for Light International Week

The 34th annual Ski for Light International Week will take place from Sunday February 1 through Sunday February 8, 2009 in the Wasatch Mountains of Northern Utah. We will stay at the Marriott Hotel & Conference Center in Provo, and ski at the Soldier Hollow cross-country ski area in nearby Midway, Utah. Soldier Hollow was the cross-country skiing venue for the 2002 Winter Olympics. Detailed information about the event and easy-to-complete applications will be available here by July. If you have never before attended what many have called the experience of a lifetime and would like to know more now, please read Information for Prospective First-Time Attendees to learn what the week is all about and how it works.
