930 update: Chanse has been grooming with the Husky and the trails are tilling up really well. In the more open sections we lost some base but in the trees we didn’t lose much. The Woolner is open, but we lost the Rockside Loop. There is about 3cm of new snow that has mixed in nicely. There are a few small icy patches, but 99% of the network is good. The snow will be sticky so Easy Glide will be our friend today.

We live to ski another day 💪

We are in a big transition right now so we will keep the trails closed until 10am.
We needed to the trails firm up a bit before putting machinery on them. Overall the trails faired pretty well, but this new snow will make a big difference. It has just started to snow now and is suppose to continue all day. There maybe a few icy spots today, but overall the skiing should be pretty good. As we get more snow it will get better. Teal’s Tango and Wooler Loop are closed for now until we see if we make some patch repairs to the wet spots.  please park in the upper lot today and use caution walking through the parking lot. I will have another update at 9 when they have been able to complete more grooming.

9:30 Update: 

It is sunny at plus 11. So far it is not nearly as windy as they had called for, although it is starting to pick up a bit. Feedback is the trails are actually in pretty good shape! The worst of it is right around the chalet. Teals Tango has one large bleed through spot. We are working on some water management to deal with those key areas. Long story short the skiing is pretty good! As the sun stays out we will see the snow soften significantly as the day goes on.

We have moved into full spring mode today and then back to minor spring mode as of tomorrow. Trails are open. The skiing will be better first thing and slow down as the day goes. Chanse groomed with the Husky last night. Admittedly it won’t be the best skiing today but it will still be skiing! There is a very low chance of rain (about 40%), with high winds. We are feel confident that we will get through this warm spell, likely loosing loops like the Rockside. Of course we will know more tomorrow.

This morning is the sunrise ski! See you at 6:51 😉 Doors open at 6:20. Chanse regroomed everything with the Husky last night. It will start off firm and fast (but fun!), as it warms up it will soften and slow a little bit. Skiing will be excellent today! Let’s have fun with this Spring skiing 🌷

Fat biking is open and is riding really well! Everyone coming back has said condition for fat biking is the best it’s been all year. Follow @highlandsfatbike on Instagram for daily updates on conditions.

I love at this time of year rediscovering what that beautiful March sun feels like! When the sun is shining and the skiing is awesome you feel like you are on top of the world. Conditions continue to be excellent as Chanse regrooms everything with the Husky. Make sure to pack your sun screen today 😉

Trails are looking awesome as we have another little cold snap. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky. It is a little windy today so you may find some drifting in the open areas. Both classic and skate will be good today!

Fat biking is open. There is still a bit of drifting by the Quarry, but other than that the riding is pretty good. The trails are being groomed this morning. Follow @highlandsfatbike on Instagram for daily updates on conditions.

Chanse is taking a drive in the Husky this morning for another great day on the trails. Conditions on excellent as we move nicely into spring skiing! We got just a light dusting of snow last night. Skate skiing will be especially good.

How the heck have we found ourselves at the end of February?! Skiing is going to be amazing today. The sun will be shining, the trails will be firm and fast with lots of control. Call in sick, leave work early, come out on lunch break…do what you need to do to get out on the trails today! Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky.

Fat biking is open. Low PSI will be key. The riding is good. Up by Quarry there will be a drifted section from yesterday. It’s a little cold out for the groomers to get out now but they will be grooming later.  Follow @highlandsfatbike on Instagram for daily updates on conditions.

Finding trails in the trees will be key today. There will be higher winds, but once in the woods it will be better. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky, although you will find some drifting in the usual spots. See you on the trails!

A couple of general reminders:

– When snowshoeing please be sure to stay on the snowshoe trail.
– please wear a mask from the parking lot to 50 metres beyond the building
– contact tracing and screening still needs to be completed.
