Jessie-Socci

Minnesota’s own Jessie Diggins started skiing, while on her father’s back in a backpack. The Diggins family has had a passion for cross country skiing most of their lives.

Jessie started out in the Minnesota Youth Ski League, then progressed to cross country ski for the Stillwater High School team. Soon after, Jessie made the US Winter Olympic Nordic Ski Team.

We congratulate Jessie on her fabulous accomplishments, of which some are listed below:

  • 2013 World Champion
  • 2015 Worlds Silver Medalist
  • Three-time Minnesota High School state champion
  • Nine Junior ski titles
  • The rest of the list

Trails and Advocacy

January 13th, 2014 Webmaster Posted in News Comments Off on Trails and Advocacy

Minnesota has over 4000 kilometers of cross country ski trails – from rugged backcountry single-track to meticulously groomed, lighted trails. These trails are funded through private, State grant-in-aid program, State general fund, State forest funds, and community sources.

Purchase of a Minnesota Ski Pass grants access to all State Park trails and State grant-in-aid trails. Some counties and municipalities require a separate pass and private trail systems have their own fees.

The MNSA advises the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources on trail development through the grant-in-aid program and advocates for facilities and trails state-wide.
