What is a SPAM race? 

In 1997, the SPAM Cup race series was developed by West Yellowstone locals Steve Morse, former owner of Nancy P's Bakery, and Scott Carsley, former owner of Yellowstone Alpen Guides, to give skiers of all ages and abilities the opportunity to try Nordic ski racing for a low cost and without the pressure of a SuperTour or other national race affiliation.  At the time, the Rendezvous Race, held annually in March, was the only mid-winter race that brought skiers to town. 

Why "SPAM"?  Because ...it just doesn't matter!  SPAM, the beloved potted meat, is not the healthiest food source if you're a Nordic racer.  This slogan and "mascot" were chosen to help attract those skier who normally wouldn't choose to race, but who did have a solid sense of humor.  The original entry fee was $5.00 per race.  Our winner's prizes have evolved with the times as well.  The winners of each distance win a one-of-a-kind, museum-worthy, handcrafted, West Yellowstone Ski Team decorated can of SPAM.  You know you want one!

West Yellowstone Ski Education Foundation (WYSEF) quickly added the SPAM Series to its roster of events and now hosts a SPAM Cup each year.  The cost is still low, the pressure is even lower, and the fun is at an all time high.  Skiers come from West Yellowstone, Teton Valley, and even Cody to try their hand at winning a coveted SPAM Cup trophy.
