It was a perfect morning for out door winter sports and the snow covering on the trail was pristine.

The gun went off at 11 am right on frozen Cameron Lake and over 70 athletes took off on tough , challenging and very scenic course.

This was a record turnout for the event that also featured a kids 500 meter sprint run and a variety of winter festival activities including crokicurl, snow sculptures and a fat bike tour.

Luca Senk and Kelly Doner were the respective male and female Champions in the 10 k. Matt Campbell and Taralynn Likuski taking the honors in the 5 k.

All four athletes will have their names engraved on the Snowshoe Canada Provincial Championship plaque.
