Birkie 2026 is almost here!

And … no news is good news.

2025 we weren’t really sure at this point if we were going to have enough snow at this point and didn’t find out until mid-month.

2024 was, well, we know what 2024 was.

2023 had lots of snow, but was warm enough we weren’t sure the lake would be frozen enough.

This year? Enough snow, tons of ice, and some warm weather upcoming but nothing too hot. Good trail, good grooming, not much to worry about. We have a podcast with Ben Popp (a Poppcast?) talking about the race, and it sounds not too bad!

We’ll make some changes here as needed but for the most part, we’ll see you soon in Wisconsin!
