Salomon Toboggan Run
The event uses a backyard ultra format with up to ten hourly loops. Each loop is 5.8 km and must be completed within one hour to continue. If a participant exceeds one hour on a loop they are out. If multiple participants complete the final loop together there will be a sprint to determine the winner.
The course combines different trail surfaces: about 2.0 km of rail trail, 1.8 km of logging road, 1.0 km of ATV trail, and 1.0 km of single track. Each lap includes roughly 150 m of ascent and 150 m of descent.
The organizer has rented the ATV Clubhouse for the day, providing indoor washrooms and shelter for clothes and food. The event is a fundraiser for the St. Margarets Bay Food Bank and the Safety Minded ATV Association; participants are asked to bring a few non‑perishable food items to donate. Registration includes draw prize eligibility, aid station food, hot chocolate, and homemade cookies. A toboggan is included with registration and participants must be at least 18 years old.
Rules and logistics noted by the organizer include no refunds, no deferrals unless the registrant volunteers for required hours, transfers allowed, and no dogs on the course. Many events are cup free so participants should bring a drinking vessel. Volunteer shifts come with draw prize entry and a free entry the following year when the volunteer criteria are met.
