Dudley, a 12 year old PVNT skier, has been skiing for years but just last season decided to try racing. We talk a lot about how racing is not our only focus and I think Dudley is the perfect example of that.  I remember asking him at practice if he wanted to race at the upcoming Plain Washington Nordic Cup and he said, “Nope, I’m going to ride my snowmobile instead.”  Last fall, I asked Dudley if he thought he would try racing in the winter and to my surprise, he said that he would like to.  It has been a pleasure to watch Dudley step out of his comfort zone, challenge himself, overcome that challenge and be ready for the next challenge, whether that be adventure skiing, skier-cross jumps or a nordic race.

This month, we recognize Peter Norby. He has been on the team for a decade now. We often joke that PVNT is the Peter Valley Nordic Team. He has been such an important constant in the team. The group’s energy often functions around his presence. This year has been a bit different. Peter went through difficult challenges, and his absence was hard felt. Read more

The 2024 Junior Nationals was one for the books! We are so proud of all of our PVNT skiers who spent countless hours challenging and pushing themselves to break barriers. This all couldn’t have been made possible without our amazing coaches, PVNT support team, PVNT families, PVAW, landowners, sponsors, season pass holders, and donors. It truly takes a village and we cannot be more grateful of our PVNT community who provide so many opportunities for youth in the valley to challenge, learn, repeat! Learn about the PVNT JN Skiers!
