The Payak

Thank you to our photographer, Andrea Heal, for being our photographer this year! Click here to see the photos.

We are following the Provincial Health Officer’s orders for this event. Masks are required indoors. The BC Centre for Disease Control recommends that you stay home if you do not feel well or have any symptoms of COVID (http://www.bccdc.ca/health-info/diseases-conditions/covid-19/if-you-have-covid-19). Please do not come to the Payak if you have a headache, cough, fatigue, fever, feel unusually tired, or a sore throat. Our usual no-refund policy for illness will apply.

Thank you for your understanding.

Coast Outdoors Payak is pleased to welcome new and returning sponsors, Rundle, KV+ and the Nordic Racers. They join our long-term sponsors Coast Outdoors, Salomon, Fischer and Swix, and Squamish Nesters. Without support from these businesses and clubs, this race would not be such a success!

This is a gentle reminder the pre-registration deadline was moved ahead to January 15, at midnight. The next price increase is February 15 at midnight.

In the event that organizers are forced to cancel due to COVID-19 restrictions, your registration will transfer to next year. If you cannot attend in 2023, please let us know in January, 2023, and you will be refunded at that time.

All participants, including volunteers, age 12 and over must be double-vaccinated for COVID-19. Uploading your QR code is part of the registration. Thank you for your understanding.
