Ski Trail Report

Winter Wonderland! Approaching 2 feet of snow this week with more snow falling this evening. We have 40km of trail groomed and open for the weekend. Slow going grooming this week due to the heavy snow bending over branches, breaking off limbs etc 15km classic only, 25km skate only groomed. We will try to touch up a few trails on Saturday morning. Branches continue to fall, use little extra caution on the downhills and watch out for the “face slappers”!

Classic only trails being groomed include Sap Run, Mother Hen, JibFly, Sukkerbusk, Mother North Star, Rootin Tootin and Twin Lakes. We are only grooming one track, setting best line to avoid over hanging branches etc. For skate, we are packing and combing out all the skate trails Skaters Waltz, the extension loops, Single Green, Kristin’s Cutoff and North Loup. Expect soft conditions skating.

Has been a nice start to the ski season with good early season conditions. Great seeing so many people out so far this year, thanks for the reports and purchase of season passes. 

Total snowfall this season at 28″. Compacted base on trail 4-8″. 

Winter operating plans include to operate for day skiing on the the ski, snowshoe and fat bike trails. Trails will be open every day there is skiable snow including all Holidays and weekends.

(Trail maps posted here)  

Similar to the COVID season, there will be no services available. Parking in the far lot with portable bathrooms.No lodging or meal service. Starting Thanksgiving weekend we will have the Brant cabin available as a warming area with restrooms and sitting area and tables. There are no ski rentals available.
