- can commit totally from Friday evening 6pm, Feb 12th to late Sunday evening, Feb 14th 2010
- certified in first aid (St. John Standard with CPR or equivalent)
- Intermediate cross-country skiing ability (able to easily ski a 15 km section of trail while carrying a day-pack)
- have suitable ski gear and clothing (a first aid kit can be provided)
