Halloween Costume Inspiration from the Ski Trails

 

Don't turn around if these two show up at the finish line!

Halloween is a time for dressing up and getting creative. From the dark and macabre to the weird and whimsical, people of all ages revel in the opportunity to wear an alternate persona as they trick or treat their way through their community.

Although it’s a little too early in most places to trick or treat on skis, cross country skiers still love wearing costumes at celebrations and races throughout the winter season.

In today’s post, we’re looking back on some of the most entertaining outfits we’ve seen on past Lumi trips. Hopefully these fun-loving skiers inspire you to don some goofy attire next time you race or spectate. The smiles you’ll bring to yourself, and others, make it all worth it!

Some people dress in modern attire to stay warm. Others take a diffrent route.

A little glitter goes a long way if that's all you've got!
