Season Kick-Off + Giving Tuesday Party is November 29th!

Giving Tuesday is a unique opportunity for the public to learn about the difference non-profits make in our communities and a chance to say thank you by making a donation. Our Giving Tuesday Party is the perfect opportunity to connect with the Mt. Shasta ski community, cheers to the upcoming season, and give back.

The Season Kick-Off + Giving Tuesday Party is hosted by Friends of the Mt. Shasta Avalanche Center and Mt. Shasta Nordic Center.

Considering making a donation to Mt. Shasta Nordic? Here are a few reasons we think you should:

Capital Improvements Coming Soon

Mt. Shasta Nordic Center is on the cusp of great change. In case you missed the news, Siskiyou Outdoor Recreation Alliance was awarded a $1.1M California State Parks and Recreation/Regional Park Program grant (see details here) for the Nordic Center Facilities Upgrade & Connected Community Trails Project. Improvements to the Nordic Center will include a new guest services lodge, a double vault toilet, interpretive panels, and a maintenance area with two trailers (plus more Gateway trails!). We can't wait to implement these changes next summer!

Snowcat Groomer Fund

To complete our capital improvement vision for the Nordic Center, we are fundraising for a second snowcat groomer to lighten the load on Ms. Kitty and ensure consistent, meticulous grooming throughout each ski season. Last season was a stellar example of what focused grooming can inspire at a place like Mt. Shasta Nordic. We were able to stay open not only for our wonderful regulars and visitors, but for the children of Siskiyou, Shasta, and Jefferson counties during our School Program days.

A second groomer will ensure that if something goes awry with Ms. Kitty, we will always have a backup in place to guarantee consistent grooming for our trail users. Your donation towards the Snowcat Groomer Fund is a direct investment in the future of groomed trails at the Nordic Center for generations to come.

Staying Affordable

This season, the Mt. Shasta Nordic Center team has made the decision to keep pricing exactly the same over last season. With economic hardships seen across the country, and in Siskiyou County especially, we determined it was the best choice to keep the Nordic Center as affordable as possible for our community. We want to demonstrate to our passholders, casual visitors, and School Program groups alike that when they invest in us, we invest right back. Your donation helps us keep pricing as low as possible, which in turn gives even more people the opportunity to experience the joy of skiing and snowshoeing at the Nordic Center.
