Painted winter-sport backglass in a flat cartoon/comic style with an airbrushed background. A huge red title in thick rounded block capitals, its letters filled with small white snowflake sprigs and outlined in dark blue with a white inner keyline, arches across the top against a pale turquoise sky. Below it sit two wide rectangular panels with blue frames, red-and-white corner accents and interiors patterned with orange, yellow, red and pale-blue diamonds, plus a small plain grey square between them. The background shows a pink and lilac horizon band, snow-capped blue mountains with one tall white peak in the centre, and dense dark-green conifer forests down both sides. Two brown log cabins with snow-loaded roofs and bright blue windows sit mid-left, with a wooden fence and curved track lines below. A crowd of cartoon children and one adult woman in bright winter clothing slide, fall and steer coloured discs across the pale blue ice, with a red squirrel and a small red bird among them. Round mushroom-shaped bumpers numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4 fill the foreground on concentric blue circles.
