Sisu is a Finnish word that captures the heart of Nordic skiing: resilience, grit, determination, and finding joy even in challenging conditions. Ski for Sisu celebrates the perseverance of our ski community—those who show up despite thin snow, cold mornings, and changing winters to support free, community-powered skiing at Spring Gulch.
