This program was written by avid backcountry skier and Canadian National Team Skimo racer Coach Kylee Toth. This program is designed for races or challenges under 2000 meters (6500ft) in ascent. In conventional Skimo racing this plan would be great for training for individual races, verticals and sprint. For recreational ski touring this plan is good for big day ski tours of any technicality. The program is designed to be started after our Pre-Season Skimo plan which we suggest doing from September to December. This is a 14 week program. It is best started when you have snow on the ground.
