Trails have been freshly groomed. Enjoy!
Happy to report all trails were rolled this evening. They'll be touched up again shortly. Enjoy!
Grooming complete. What a dump of snow!
Please be cautious out there. There's a layer of ice under our beautiful new snow!
Grooming update!
All trails got cleaned up. Conditions are great. Soak it up before the warm weather hits!
Have a great weekend everyone! Trails were groomed this morning. Hope you can enjoy them!
Note from Noel:
Just groomed the trails and was able to lay classic tracks.
In pretty good shape considering the snow we have.🥳
❄️ We hope you’re all enjoying the holiday season! And yes… we know you’d be enjoying it even more if the trail was open. 😉
Winter arrived early and we’ve already been able to roll the trail base twice. But so far there just hasn’t been enough snow to set classic tracks — and based on the past five seasons, it’s actually pretty rare for conditions to be reliable before mid- to late-January. So we’re staying patient… and keeping our fingers crossed for a skiable trail soon! 🤞
