The prizegiving for Queenstown’s popular Skin to Summit series, organised by Small Planet Sports, was held this week.
Held over four successive weeks, with two events on Coronet Peak and two on The Remarkables, racers start skinning up the skifields at 6.30am, with different courses set each time.

Ski mountaineering (skimo) is being introduced to the Winter Olympics for the first time in 2026 at Milano Cortina in Italy.
