The North Star Ski Touring Club
Based in the Twin Cities, the club is not only the largest ski touring club in Minnesota but one of the largest in all of North America.
The mission of NSSTC
As stated in its charter, the mission of NSSTC is “to enjoy and promote the development of cross-country skiing”. We fulfill our mission through group activities, education and trail development. From its humble beginnings in 1967 with a first-year membership of nineteen visionary skiers the club, also known as NSSTC or the North Stars, has grown steadily and with a sense of purpose.
North Star Members
Outdoor enthusiasts can find in the North Stars year-round opportunities to recreate with like-minded people. We are united by our love of silent sports, especially cross-country skiing, and the conviction that these activities will best take us into the heart and soul of the great outdoors.
North Stars are a very diverse and physically active bunch of people. Members are all ages, single and married, long-time Minnesotans and recent transplants. Many members enjoy recreational skiing while some prefer the challenge of citizen racing. In addition to the main chapter of the club we have a large singles division active in both outdoor recreation and social activities. We have a mid-week group called the Wednesday Wanderers – open to anyone that has Wednesdays free. They meet every Wednesday of the year to ski, bike, hike, canoe, or do whatever the weather allows.
