Wijara is the Wisconsin Illinois/Iowa Junior Alpine Racing Association. It consists of 9 teams - Blackhawk, Cascade Mountain, Chestnut Mountain, Four Lakes, Hidden Valley, Snowstar, Sundown, Tyrol Basin, and Wilmont. Wijara holds four races per year hosted by Chestnut, Sundown, Cascade and Tyrol Basin. The races are two day events on the weekend with Saturday being a giant slalom race and Sunday being a slalom race.*  The races consist two races per day with a total of three timed runs. The first medals and team points are awarded on the combined time of the first two runs. A racer must successfully complete both runs to post a competing time. The third run is a stand alone time and medals and team points are awarded on the single third run. Wijara has evolved into one of the largest competitive race leagues in the midwest. *Note - the 2021 race season has been impacted by Covid-19 and the schedule is being modified to comply with state and county health guidelines.
