Trails are open for skiing. Grooming this morning on Sap Run, Mother Hen, Sukkerbusk, JibFly, Rootin Tootin, Twin Lakes and Roy’s Run for classic. Skaters Waltz 4km loop groomed and open for skating.  Looks to warm up quite a bit today, best to be skiing early in the morning and before noon. The new snow will be very slow and sticky once it warms up by noon, as forecasted. 

It’s been a great five days of skiing after snow last Friday which was very dense with good moisture. Packed and groomed out very nice and tracks setting up solid. Conditions don’t get much better, specially for mid March! Tuesday felt more like a January day with blustery conditions and snow falling in the afternoon. A great day of skiing nonetheless and awesome to see people out the whole day from early morning until sunset….just like the past five days….Just Ski!

Winter returns! Snow moving in on the weekend with 6-7″ of fresh powder. Just a sprinkling of snow over night as the bulk of the Sunday storm staying south of us. A little bit of wind this afternoon but overall a great day on the trails. Monday grooming planned on trails groomed Saturday and will set a singletrack on Twin Lakes for Monday and Tuesday skiing which should be great days to ski!

Grooming this morning on Rootin Tootin and Roy’s Run setting track. Saturday grooming on Sap Run, Mother Hen, Sukkerbusk and JibFly setting track. Skate ski grooming on 4km loop of Skaters Waltz. Very tricky grooming on the segments ice base underneath making it difficult for traction and multiple times getting stuck but overall the trails groomed out very nice! For the most part the snow is skiing like mid winter, strong sun might soften the snow otherwise doesn’t get much better for mid March! Just Ski.
