Trails are open. Happy New Year! We are open today and ski rentals are available.  Excellent conditions. A super day of skiing for the first day of 2026! Another dusting of snow overnight. We are in a gentle snowy cycle resulting in really nice skiing! Snowfall the past three days resulting in 5-6″ total accumulation. We will be grooming on much of the trail system today. We groomed the entire trail system including “Lumi’s Loop” which is a 1.2km loop on the lake with a skate lane and track set yesterday. It’s been awesome seeing so many people out on the trails this holiday season and we deeply appreciate the support!

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”.  

24″ of snow so far this season. We have been grooming daily on the entire trail system since mid November, only missing a few days.
