2025 Grand Mesa Nordic Festival and Masters Ski Weekend
Start your winter right with this three-day series of ski clinics in a welcoming community of passionate skiers. This program will help you refresh your technique and start the season strong. Whether you’re a first-time skier or heading into your 20th season, we’ve got a group for you.
Our all-star lineup of instructors (see below) will guide you so you can become more confident and get more enjoyment out of skiing. You’ll learn in a small group matched to your ability and goals, and you’ll receive personalized feedback and individual instruction.
This is a great opportunity to get on snow early and get a jump on your technique and training. The Grand Mesa usually gets some of the earliest and most reliable snow in the West.
If you haven’t skied on the Mesa yet, you will be amazed at our beautiful spruce forests, rolling terrain and wide, snowcat groomed trails.
The Festival takes place at Skyway Trailhead.

Growing up in Michigan, Emily Lovett developed a deep passion for skiing at an early age. After college and a short stint working as a project leader for a technology consulting firm, Emily took a “leave of absence” from that job and moved to Steamboat Springs, CO. to work in the ski industry, instructing and coaching cross-country skiing.
She was fortunate to learn from the best, Sven Wiik, Jon Engan, Jon Kreamelmeyer, to name a few. Emily is known for her ability to create engaging and fun learning environments, and her 29 year career in coaching includes roles as a coach and co-director at the West Yellowstone Ski Camp, Head Coach at Steamboat Springs High School Ski Team, and, most recently, eight years with the PSIA National Team, contributing to advancing ski technique education and facilitating instructor and coach development programs across the country. She also serves as an instructor and masters ski coach in Steamboat Springs and enjoys competing in citizen ski races. Her personal commitment to skiing reflects her coaching philosophy, balancing continuous personal development, challenge and enjoyment.

After many years in the Steamboat Springs area, he now lives in the Surface Creek Valley and has made the Grand Mesa his home for skiing.
