We are thrilled to announce being part of a new Loppet Series in the Pacific Northwest. The Sovereign 2 SilverStar Ski Marathon is joining forces with the Nipika/Panorama Loppet Weekend, the Ski to the Sun and the Coast Outdoors P’ayakentsut to make an amazing four-loppet series with six events in total. We hope that you’ll have so much fun with one of them that you’ll want to do them all!

Well, of course we think you win just by showing up and finishing all these great events. But if you want to win a cool prize then you need to be one of the top 3 women or top 3 men based on points. Points will be awarded based on your placement in your age category at each event (total of 6 possible races). So if you finish 1st in the 70+ age category that’s the same as finishing 1st in the 20 year old category. And the more events that you do, the more points you get! Points in each age category are awarded as follows: 1st – 15, 2nd – 12, 3rd – 10, 4th – 8, 5th – 6, 6th – 5, 7th – 4, 8th – 3, 9th – 2 and 10th – 1 point. And you will also be eligible for draw prizes from the 4 events. So come explore the Pacific Northwest on Cross Country Skis!
