The fifth annual Tour of Tsalteshi is Sunday, Feb. 20, 2022, at the trailhead behind Skyview Middle School. A 40-kilometer freestyle race — two laps around the trails — starts at 11:30 a.m. A 20-kilometer race — one lap around the trails, with freestyle and classic divisions — starts shortly thereafter. New this year is a 20-kilometer fat-tire bike event, in partnership with Cook Inletkeeper, starting at 2 p.m. Prizes will be awarded for the first three men and women finishers in each race and raffle drawings will be available to all participants. Awards will be given at a post-race party starting at 3 p.m. at Kenai River Brewing in Soldotna. Discounts are available for early registration, TTA members and members of neighboring ski clubs. The first 150 to register for the race get a free buff with Kaitlin Vadla’s “Seasons of Tsalteshi” artwork. To register, sign up to volunteer or for more information, visit www.touroftsalteshi.org.
