Silver Star & Sovereign Lake
December 2 – 8, 2025
Desire to Nordic ski on perfectly groomed trails in early December? Silver Star and Sovereign Lakes offer early-season skiing on their combined trail system of 100 km—Ski-in, ski-out from Snowbird Lodge with trails in your footsteps. Let Endurance Adventures take care of your trip planning details so you can relax and enjoy more time on the trails.
Morning sessions will include a guided cross-country ski session with your trip leader, Kim Rudd. The session will consist of instruction in both classic and skate ski techniques and a video review. In the afternoon sessions, participants can relax at their condo, ski independently, or in groups on one of the suggested ski routes handcrafted by Kim Rudd.
Following your ski outing, relax in a private outdoor whirlpool and enjoy appetizers and drinks with your new ski friends! Enjoy conversation and dinner as a group at one of the reserved Silver Star Restaurants. Check out the 2023 Silver Star Trip Highlights for more pictures and testimonials.

ABILITY LEVELS
We will require all participants to have some prior Nordic ski experience. Trip leaders will break into smaller groups geared towards participants’ fitness/ability levels for the daily ski adventures. The trip will focus on exploring the trails in Silver Star and Sovereign Lakes with 20-30 minutes of daily classic and skate ski technique instruction.
Depending on their fitness and ability levels, participants can choose to ski from various shorter (10km) distances or longer(20 – 30km) distances for each ski outing. Trip leaders will provide various ski itinerary options for all ability levels so that everyone can enjoy the trails at their desired pace. Each day, the ski gondola lift ticket can be used twice, with your Nordic ski pass providing shortcuts to avoid long hill climbs. For more information, visit our FAQ page.
