Ski Mountaineering, also knows as "SkiMo" combines the endurance of a cross-country skier with the skill and strength of an alpine skier. This is great sport for alpine, cross-country, and all mountain skiers as well mountain bikers and runners. Our athletes are taught the fundamental skills and efficiency of ski touring before training with an eye on racing. There are a variety of race distances and styles.
SkiMo will be making its Olympic Debut at the 2026 Winter Olympic Games!
The primary objective of the PCSS Ski Mountaineering team is to develop both the skills and passion for ski touring and ski mountaineering. In doing so, we hope to foster a lifelong love for both the outdoors and sport. Skiers will optimize specific ski mountaineering skills and fitness to develop enjoyment and proficiency in the sport.
