Skimo challenge Owl's Head is a skimo race at Owl's Head ski resort in Quebec. Presented by Ultra-Trail Harricana, the long course is about 9 miles (15 km) with 5 250 ft (1 600 m) of climbing. The course has many challenges including a steep and difficult boot-pack, many transitions and off-pistes descents. Your quads will feel it!

The race is part of the SkimoEast championship and is the second race of a two day combo weekend, the other being on march 5th at Jay Peak ski resort. Registration for both races are separate and it is possible to race only one of the two events. If you are competing for the SkimoEast Championship, you will need to race both races, as their results will be combined. The points earned by the combine time will be multiplied by 1.5.
