      GLIDELITE TREK SKI RENTAL

       

      Black Diamond Glidelite Trek Skis are designed with the dream of making snowshoes more efficient. They are a shortened wide ski with an integrated skin built into the base.

They have a full metal edge. 127 cm skis are ideal for smaller people and/or terrain where tight navigation is required. They do not have a metal edge.

      Rental Fee: $45 per day (Weekly rates are also available)
      Reservations: Available seasonally, typically October through March. Reservations highly recommended. Call 907-746-5018.
