• Changes to Woppet 15km and 30km Courses – Snowshoe Scramble Cancelled

  As Whistler Olympic Park is unable to groom the crosstrain trail, we are making changes to the 15km and 30km courses for the Whistler Olympic Park Loppet.

  We have also cancelled the Snowshoe Scramble categories due to low registration.

  For the 15km course, instead of heading down Brandywine view and up Metal Dome, the course will turn left at Around the World, and instead of heading back towards Crosstrain it will take Lower Line Road and then Mountain View back through the ski jump stadium to the finish line.
