What is the Winter Summit

One day. One lake. Four ways to reset. One community.

01

Move through the winter woods.

A guided snowshoe trek at conversation pace. Not a race. Steady movement, fresh air, and time side by side with people worth knowing.

02

Reset with heat and cold.

Guided sauna and cold plunge contrast sessions with Sauna Camps, plus breathwork, so you leave grounded instead of drained.

03

Do the mindset work.

Short talks, practical tools, and fireside circles on the Everest you are climbing right now. Real takeaways, not just inspiration for the drive home.

04

Share your Everest.

The heart of the day is an open fireside conversation about the challenge that feels impossible right now. Bring a challenge from life, business, family, or your personal world, and share insights and perspectives with the community on finding a way through.

Winter pushes people toward autopilot. This day is the interruption.

Every ticket supports Let’s Fuel Growth, a Minnesota 501(c)(3) building mental wellness through movement, community, and doing hard things together.
