The Mad Trapper

The Mad Trapper Trail and Snowshoe Series is Canada's oldest trail and snowshoe series (our first race was in 2003). Still grassroots, the Mad Trapper prioritizes the community and social aspects of the sport. We're best known for our post race feasts complete with home chili, burgers, beer and our "world famous" brownies. The bulk of our prizing is randomly award through rock-paper-scissors smackdowns and the "1-2 Game" that I personally invented. If you see any photos from our events, I GUARANTEE you'll see smiling faces.
