Grooming Report for 2023/03/07

Classic Track: Yes

Trails were groomed and classic track was set. It had been above freezing for a long period of time, making them soft and not structurally very strong on the surface. While it was freezing up while I was out there, there are a few places where the machine tracks left somewhat of a rut, mainly where wind caused drifts over the past two weeks. More grooming traffic and settling will alleviate that.

There’s still a good snow pack, but it’s definitely spring skiing now with these warm days and less cold nights. The meadow trails had good cold snow and will ski the best. Parts of the tree trails were also still cold dry snow, but there are parts that have transformed into slushy corn snow.

We have probably two weeks of grooming/skiing left if we don’t receive any more snow. Conditions should be good tomorrow through the weekend.

Enjoy!

Fun on latest snow (and in the gym)!

Some snowy weeknight fun, intense bungee pulling competition, more downhill runs and strength from our juniors! Huge thank you to our awesome volunteer coaches!

And our amazing groomers are working hard on catching up with all the new snow but it is a LOT of work for many evenings after their day jobs! Hug a groomer (and have a look at their awesome Grooming Report / Trail Status!
