Bear the Elements with Sleeping Bear Surf & Kayak and the Homestead

February 21, 2022/in Featured, fun, Leelanau, michigan, skiing, surfing, winter

Here’s an awesome video from Sleeping Bear Surf & Kayak!

Bear the Elements ChallengeThe beauty and bounty of Leelanau’s backyard playground does not dwindle come winter time. If we’re lucky, lake effect snow covers our region, coming across the yet-unfrozen lake and dumping powder across the landscape. This phenomenon, often followed by heavy wind creating waves, or a peaceful calm, creates the perfect recipe for the most epic backyard adventure if you’re hardy enough to Bear the Elements.

The Bear the Elements Challenge from Sleeping Bear Surf & Kayak & The Homestead Resort was designed to encourage you to embrace the outdoors regardless of the weather conditions, and to push yourself to take to both snow and water in the same day. Are YOU up for the challenge?

Every Challenge entry will be awarded 2 day passes to ski FREE at The Homestead Resort! That’s a $100 dollar value just for participating, and if you do the challenge by the following dates for a chance to win tickets to some RAD Michigan ski resorts:

  • By February 21st: 2 full day passes to Nubs Nob
  • By February 28th: 2 full day passes to Marquette Mountain
  • By March 7th:  2 full day passes to Pine Knob
