Ski Trail Report

Trails are open. Excellent early season conditions. All the classic trails are now tracked! Has been 4-5 years since everything was tracked this early in the year. Only thing not groomed is the lake segment of Bullhead lake trail. Bottom of Eira hill go straight across to pick up grooming. We hope to ski a track in today or pack with the snowmobile. Thursday we set track on all the singletrack classic trails and reset select tracks on the double track. Skate trails are combed, and will touch up again Friday morning. Also on tap will be touch up on a few double track trails. Weather this weekend will be ideal for classic skiing! Dress in layers, take short loops and Just Ski!

We are open daily and do not close because of cold weather etc. Around 7-8″ of new snow this week, 16″ of snow so far this season. We have been grooming daily on the entire trail system the past two weeks. 

Thank you to everyone that comes to ski and supports the trails with season pass purchases. Day passes can be purchased here

Skating on Skaters Waltz, the extension loops, North Loup, Single Green, Kristin’s Kutoff and Eira Bikwadinaa Hill. All other trails are tracked for classic skiing. (Please no skating on classic trails) Sukkerbusk is a great starter trail for classic which feeds the outer trails and crosses most of the inner trails providing a good “lay of the land”. 

 Fat bike trails are not groomed yet. Click here for fat bike trail report.

We had a great Autumn of Fall grooming clearing leaves and debris off the trails and the new snow is packing in well with the clean deck before the snow. 

We cleared over 600 trees since the Solstice 2025 storm. Big thanks to everyone that has helped!

Total snowfall in December: 9″. Snowfall in November: 7″. Snowfall YTD at 16″. October precipitation (rain) at 2.7″ and around 1″ in September. Total precipitation ytd (rain) at Maplelag is at 25.12″.
