Winter special events include Frisco's Old Fashioned Christmas and the Frisco Gold Rush, Colorado's oldest citizen's cross country ski race. Gold Rush Weekend also features Gold Mush sled dog racing and a winter fireworks spectacular.
Cross Country skiers haven't been forgotten in Frisco. The Frisco Nordic Center, on a forested
peninsula overlooking Lake Dillon, offers 35 kilometers oset track, ski rentals,
instruction, and equipment sales. The Center, which boasts a 1,400 sq. ft. log lodge, offers the Frisco Cup Challenge, a series of dryland training and Nordic races throughout the season. It is also home to Two Below Zero Sleigh Rides, a horse-drawn dinner sleigh ride experience.
For non-skiers, the outdoor activity menu includes snowmobiling, ice skating, ice fishing, snowshoeing, and even sled dog rides!
