Fernie's End of Season Poker Ride/Run!
The Fernie High Roller is a poker run style epic day on the trails taking you around some of the best peaks in town. Make it as challenging as you like with 3 route options; The High Roller, The Low Roller and Mini Roller (kids ride).
When you sign in you will receive a punch card with the trails listed in each route on it. At the top of each trail there will be hole punch (with a unique shape – so no cheating!) to punch your card with. The more trails you check off, the more playing cards you will earn for your poker hand. When riders return to the Fernie Nordic Society you will trade in your punch card for playing cards and have a chance at the playing the best poker hand to win prizes!
The High Roller can be completed as a running or biking event.
