Trail Report

Ski trails are open. With warmer temps forecasted today, best skiing will be before noon and this will help preserve the base. We have around 10km of trail roll packed and combed for early season skiing, thanks to 6″ of snow over the weekend in multiple snow events. First snowfall melted, crusted over and provided a nice base for the second snow event. No tracks set, freestyle skiing on all trails allowed. Trail passes purchased here.

Trails groomed include Sukkerbusk, Skaters Waltz and Suicide Hill. There are some rough spots here and there but overall very skiable. The best segments are closer to the lodge. Temps look to remain cold with critical freezing nights which will help freeze down the base and start setting frost into the ground. With slightly warmer temps possible during the day this week, best skiing will be in the mornings or later afternoon. With warmer weather on Tuesday, please ski before noon if venturing out to preserve the base

Fat bike trails remain closed. Lodging for the winter season operations will begin the December 17th weekend. There is no lodging available for winter operations before. Day and season passes can be purchased here. NO services in the lodge at this time. Park in far parking lot where recycling and porta potties are located.
