Thursday we groomed out the InnerWest loop. We will groom the loop out again later this afternoon when the snow softens. Saturday and Sunday mornings should be good to excellent conditions for fat biking!
The InnerWest loop consists of select inner singletrack segments, SukkerWest singletrack and the Twin Lakes singletrack loop. Total distance on this loop is around 17km. The start is just south of the main parking lot. Look for the FatLagChilada signs and follow to ride the loop. Other riding options include the SukkerWest loop and the Twin Lakes loop.
Fresh grooming on the fat bike trail, March 23rd, 2023.
Incredible conditions for late March. We continue to groom 25km of trail for late season skiing. 10km skate, 15km classic. With slightly warmer temps forecasted today, be prepared for changing conditions in the afternoon otherwise great late season skiing. The 6″ of snow that fell Tuesday night was some of the best snow of the season to groom with.
Grooming plans: We plan to groom on the 25km of trail that is currently opened Friday and Saturday afternoons. Should be a great weekend of skiing!
Trails groomed for classic include Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, JibFly, Twin Lakes and the side of North Loup.
Trails to be groomed for skate include Skaters Waltz and North Loup.
As we transition to spring skiing be aware of possible variable conditions mid day if sunny or temps near or above freezing this time of year. Waxing can make for much better ski experience, even if you have no wax skis the fish scale zone will work much better if a paste wax is applied to this area to keep the dry base from attracting the moisture in the snow and icing or sticking on the bottom.
Lot of animals on the move and tons of tracks everywhere, especially on the inner trails. Wovlves, eagles, grouse, porcupines, fox and pileated woodpeckers some of the wildlife sighted….keep your eyes open!
