Cross-Country Skis

Donated by a community member in West Melbourne, Florida, this trio of vintage cross-country skis was likely purchased together between 1980 and 1983, during the golden age of Nordic touring. The Trak Bushwacker skis reflect American off-trail innovation, the Fischer pair showcases Austrian precision, and the Åsnes Vestland 215 skis embody Norwegian endurance. Together, they represent a moment when winter exploration was powered by wax, wood, and wanderlust.
