Bear Valley Telemark Festival News:
[top ]

A foot of new snow just landed on the slopes of Bear Valley. We are excited to see new and old friends and wanted to pass along some information to help maximize your festival experience.

In short, more instructors, more demos and more staff. This year's festival is looking to be the best ever. There are still a few spaces in all events except the Saturday Banquet. So tell your friends to sign up today and become part of the most spirited telemark event in the country. With online reservation it has never been easier!

If you have any questions or suggestions please do not hesitate to contact MAS. We love to talk about our work!


Saturday Schedule:

All Saturday clinic topics and times have been posted on the MAS website. It is best to preview the schedule beforehand and come prepared, including backup clinics and times. This year we are restricting each clinic to 10 participants. With 66 clinics being offered throughout the day, each festival participant is guaranteed at least 2 clinics. Space permitting folks can sign-up for more clinics after 11 AM.
