Trails are open. Section day! We always look forward to hosting this event and ready for another great day! The courses groomed up very nice last night and should be some excellent competition today.
We also reset the track on Twin Lakes and access track to the western and norther trails. Island, Wavy all have snow to break through. Roy’s and Bullhead skied in after the 4″ of snow Sunday evening.
The course is held on portions of Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, all of JibFly and most of Mother North Star. All other 50km of trail will be open for day skiing. Recommended to use Loon Return to access Sukkerbusk to the western trail and northern trails. Schedule below.
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”.
We have also have a loop on Little Sugarbush Lake “Lumi’s Loop” with a skate lane and track on each side. This is a fun 1.2km loop that makes for a fun ski at sunrise and sunset and under the full moon! Groomed 1/29.
43″ of snow so far this season. We have been grooming daily on the entire trail system since mid November, only missing a few days.
