SISU 2022 Overview

Live Racing Returns: SISU Ski Fest kicks off the return of live, in-person ski racing here in the Midwest! In a nutshell:

30K SISU & 15K Heikki Lunta ski races
5K Hauska Hiihto Fun Ski
Same race course as 2020 – with a widened start area
New “Finnish” Line in Ironwood’s new Downtown City Square
Depot Dash for kids on Friday and Fat Bike Tour on Sunday

COVID-19 Creates Uncertainty: We are planning our 2022 event to be as close as possible to our traditional weekend

format that we all know and love. However, we know there will need to be modifications due to the ongoing COVID-19

global pandemic!

The following areas will likely be impacted by masking and/or social distancing restrictions:

Expo and Registration at the Ironwood Memorial Building
Bussing to the starting line
Starting line warming cabins and bathrooms
Starting line corrals
“Finnish” Line bag drop pick up and changing areas
Food service after the race
Awards ceremony

We are making contingency plans for varying degrees of restrictions. Our plans will evolve according to

recommendations by our local health department and government mandates.
