Non-Competition Days

All trails are open to all skiers. While the race trails offer exciting opportunities to test your skiing skiils, Kincaid Park has 60 km of groomed ski trails. Each trrail is unique and offer great view of Cook Inlet, the LAkaska Range, Mount Susuitna, the Chugach Mountains and, of course, Mount McCkinley and Mount Foraker.

Moose

A resident population of moose roams Kincaid Park. It’s the middle of winter and
the moose are tired and generally interested only in survival, however they are unpredictable.
Please give them a wide berth. You may have to stop and wait or even turn around and find another route. On race day the course volunteers will do everything possible to deal with the ungulates but they can be stubborn and ornery.
