Auburn Ski Club announced that it will be introducing cross-country night skiing for the 2021-22 winter season. The ski area will open for the season on Nov. 13.

ASC will be lighting 1.5km of trail with temporary lights for four weeks beginning in mid-December. Hours and details will be announced in the future and some night races may also be offered, according to the organization. Regular trail passes will be good for night skiing.

ASC is in the planning stages for a permanent project to install high-intensity LED lighting on 2.5km of cross-country trail with plans for another 3km in the future. Trail lighting is the next step in the ASC strategic plan to provide athletes access to snow sports. Lighting improvements for the race arena are also in the works.

There will be an Open House on Nov. 13 with food from noon to 1:30 p.m. and coaches will be on hand to discuss programs and answer questions. | asctrainingcenter.org
