Written by: Grainne Power
The Merino Muster cross-country ski event, named in honour of those who mustered their flocks down from the ranges before the first snow fall of winter, will take place at the Snow Farm in mid-late September. The event, now in its 27th year and run by a dedicated bunch of volunteers, has something for all ages, experience and fitness levels from the 1km loop for the U10s to the 42km race for the competitive cross-country skier. For those in between there’s plenty to choose from: the 7km Straggle Muster, the 21km Snow Rake and the all-new Double Fleece. The Double Fleece is a sheep that has eluded the annual muster and remains hillside until the following year when his fleece is twice the
length; a fitting name for the new race which, at 14km is exactly twice the length of the Straggle Muster and designed to be achievable for the novice to intermediate skier. All races can be skied on classic or skate skis. Nestled amongst the Pisa Ranges and criss-crossed by roaring brooks, the Merino Muster takes your breath away both literally and figuratively; it really is a must-do event. Early Bird entries closed on 20 August with the last date for entries being 2 September. Entries will not be taken on the day. Go to www.merinomuster.com/ to enter now. Subject to COVID-19 restrictions we hope to host the event in mid-late September.
