Bear Valley, CA...The Bear Valley Telemark Festival (BVTF), is the largest and most celebrated freeheel event in the West. Come experience the thrills of telemark skiing over 3 days with education, festivities, good food and community. Tucked high in the Central Sierra Nevada, the small alpine ski town of Bear Valley is the ideal location to host this unique and inspiring event. Skiing ability doesn't matter, so come experience what the freeheelers have been raving about for years, check out the 12th Annual Bear Valley Telemark Festival on February 8-10, 2007 Hosted by Mountain Adventure Seminars!...
HISTORY:
The first BVTF was held in 1997 out of a rented house in Bear Valley when fourteen people attended and three MAS telemark instructors were on hand to teach, clinic, cook, clean and entertain. The groups camaraderie fueled an energy that made the weekend seem to pass seamlessly and effortlessly. At the end of the weekend we were exhausted but inspired, so we decided to host another festival the following year.
Well the Bear Valley Telemark Festival hasn't slowed down and now is one of the premier telemark ski events in the country. For many people the festival serves as a centerpiece of the winter season. We view the festival as a time to gather and celebrate in the spirit of freeheel skiing....
Today the Bear Valley Telemark Festival welcomes nearly 300 freeheel skiers over three days. This event is truly the highlight of the MAS winter season and we look forward to seeing many old and new friends each year. We hope you can join us during the Bear Valley Telemark Festival.
