Critter Count 2026 - Results

Can you find this bunny and all its friends in the woods?

UPDATE - 2 March 2026 - There were 55 critters hiding in 2026 and only 1 skier got the count correct this year: Ruth! Congrats! And thanks to one and all for playing - hope you had some great skis exploring.

Welcome to the 2026 Critter Count! Critters are hiding along the edges of our popular Duck Pond Loop. This year the loop has a starting and stopping point, and is marked well along the way. There is also a suggested direction this time (see map below). The Touring Center staff can help you with these details.

As always, ski along at your merriest pace, and count as many as you see! Please remember to leave them in place for others to seek as well.

Once you are back, find the sap bucket labeled “Critter Count” - this will be inside the Touring Center at the rental counter. Fill out a slip with your name, contact info, and the number of critters you saw.

Winners will be selected on Monday, February 9th. You can tackle the loop all in one big adventure or over the course of a few skis, and you may also try multiple times!

If many people all guess the correct number, there will be many winners! Good luck, have a blast.
