For many, the Yellowstone Ski Festival marks the beginning of the winter ski season. Skiers from all over the country visit Yellowstone National Park to enjoy the wonderfully deep snow, discuss their sport and participate in clinics and ski sales. There are specially organised races for those who are already hooked, but the event welcomes beginners - let's face it, where else could you find so many experts on hand to give you advice on starting out?

Whether you are a beginning skier or an experienced racer, West Yellowstone is THE place to start your ski season. Each year, up to 3500 skiers from around the United States and Canada travel to West Yellowstone for the Yellowstone Ski Festival. Where else can you participate in ski clinics coached by former Olympic athletes and lifelong Nordic skiers, try out and purchase the latest ski gear and accessories, and share the Rendezvous Trails with so many great skiers? The Yellowstone Ski Festival offers all of that and more!
