Skiers Enjoy Maasto Hiihto Glow

The glow was a little different last night, as cross country skiers gathered at the Maasto Hiihto Trail for the annual Luminary Ski.

John Diebel from the Keweenaw Nordic Ski Club said organizers abandoned real candles, in favor of LED lights…

It was the seventh year for the evening-after-Christmas event, in which 200 luminaries light up more than a mile of carefully selected trail…

Although this was the seventh edition, Diebel says that last year was its breakthrough year…

The Luminary Ski is the first of several Keweenaw Nordic Ski Club events this winter at the Maasto Hiihto Trails. The Retro Ski will take place February 2nd. The Barneløpet children’s races will be held February 7th. The annual Glide and Gorge is scheduled for February 29th.
