July 4th 2015: Idaho, Coeur D 'Alene Trail Skate Tour- summer fun

[shesk8]

Announcing the 11th annual
July 4th 2015: Idaho, Coeur D 'Alene Trail Skate

Dates: June 28th - July 6th.
Most of the group will be in Idaho July 1st-6th.
(discounted room rates are only available thru these dates.)

NOW is the time to think ahead to summer skating adventure. SkateNow & Skate Journeys have been co-hosting this trip each July bringing skaters together to experience the seemingly endless trails of northern Idaho.

74 miles of incredibly smooth pavement and beautiful scenery along the Trails of the Coeur d 'Alene await you in Idaho. Skating is split up over 3-5 days, averaging 25-50 miles per day, covering the entire length of the trail. It's also flexible in that skaters can skate more/less distance, as much or as far as you wish.

The trip is self-financed, and not a guided tour. Travel fees to/from, food, lodging, and other incidentals are on your own. Discount room rates are set-up for skaters wishing to stay at the Silver Mountain resort in Kellogg, ID (most of the group is based out of Silver Mtn), for the dates surrounding July 4th weekend, from June 28-July 6, giving skaters flexibility to stay longer. There are numerous other area lodging options: motel/hotels, camping, or home rentals in the areas as well. See the SKATENOW EVENTS PAGE for additional hotel/lodging listings. Trip details, maps, general area info can be found at the link as well.

Keep up to date on the event with SKATENOW on Facebook

Meals: plan to BBQ, pick up groceries locally for cooking meals in, or there are ton of options for eating out. Informal BBQ's are planned for most of the evenings. Just touch base with either SkateNow or Skate Journeys upon your arrival so we know you're there and can include/inform you of evening BBQ's and each days trail skate.

Below are the discount room rates for Silver Mountain Resort. Price excludes Waterpark passes, as there does not seem to be much interest in Water park activities. But, for those with kids along on the trip, or those who just want to go play in the pools, ride the wave, or hit the water slides, you can purchase daily water park passes on your own at the resort.

Please pass this information along to other skaters. And, as always, cyclists are welcome. Other area activities include: cycling, hiking, kayaking, downhill mountain biking, golf, fishing, water park (at the resort), etc.
Make your summer of skating one to remember!

Thanks, and see you on the trail,
SkateNow & Skate Journeys
