## Description

The Forbush Opener is the perfect way to kick off your ski season! There will be a short course of approximately 5 km and a long course of approximately 8 km.

Thanks to 3.3 km of snowmaking trails, Forbush Corner Nordic is ready to provide great skiing no matter what the weather brings. More than just a race, the Forbush Opener is a chance to reconnect with friends, enjoy the trails, and celebrate the start of another winter on skis.

Come join the tradition—we’d love to see you out on the snow!
