Youth Skimo at SnowGoat

Because uphill is for kids, too.

Skimo isn’t just for adults, kids can do it too. If you’ve ever dreamed of touring with your children, or cheering them on at a SnowGoat Skimo race, you’re in the right place.

With Ski Mountaineering making its Olympic debut and a rapid growth of youth uphill and skimo programs from Maine to California, the Pacific Northwest is stepping up and joining the movement.

SnowGoat Skimo is committed to building a strong, welcoming pathway for youth athletes, from their very first uphill steps to race-day confidence.

Youth Intro to Touring Courses (2025–2026)

For the 2025/2026 season, SnowGoat is partnering with The Summit at Snoqualmie to offer Introduction to Touring courses, modeled after Summit’s highly successful adult programs. The website link is coming soon. Please reach out to andrew@snowgoatskimo.com for more information directly in the meantime.

Gear: Rent, Buy, Grow

Outgrowing gear is part of the deal:

SnowGoat helps build a growing youth gear closet to support new athletes entering the sport through Pro Ski in North Bend.
