This beautiful long weekend keeps going! Happy Family Day!

Conditions are in excellent shape. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky. Looks like the warm will hit its peak around 1. If you are looking for a faster ski the morning will be a better choice. It will likely get a little soft by the afternoon.

This is your last day to buy Teal’s Tango Draw tickets and the last day of the Feel the Love Sale!

It continues to be warm so it is important to ensure your skis are waxed (all skis), Easy Glide is applied (to waxless skis), and you have put your Skin Care on (skin skis).

Everything is open.

Looks like we are making that transition to warmer temps! It will slowly get warmer as the day goes on, hitting its peak at -8. Conditions are in excellent shape. Tim has regroomed everything with the Husky. It will be fresh and firm out there!

I will be getting out for a ski at 2:30 for Get Active Club and Angie will be snowshoeing at 1!

Everything is open.

See below for Upcoming Events.

What would I be wearing while on the trails in the cold?

Top, 3 to 4 layers: my warmer base layer, merino baselayer that I use for a mid layer, maybe a light fleece (for me I find a fleece too much for a solo ski, although would have keep it if I was skiing with others) and jacket on top.

Bottom, 2 layers (I never wear more than 2 just change the weight): my warmer base layer, and heavier outer pants. Proper underwear makes a difference too! The no cotton holds true to underwear just as much as your base layer.

Accessories: warm hat (Sauce Chill Toque), regular weight buff, warmest mitts (Auclair Gigatex, again I find these too much for a solo ski but good if I was skiing with someone), and my Lorpen socks. I usually put on some vaseline on my cheeks and lips to help cut the wind and add a layer of protection. It won’t specifically help with frostbite but it helps with wind burn.

Bottom line don’t let the cold scare you off! You may discover you can enjoy being outside even when it is cold.

Another tropical day in paradise! We have the cool temperatures today BUT it is going to sunny with very little wind which honestly makes for such a great day to be outside. Conditions will be excellent. Chanse has regroomed with the Husky.

There is a small Biathlon Race on today. It will have minimal effect on the trails. Between 2 & 3 Rainbow Out to Millennium Loop will be closed. To connect to the rest of the trails network follow the Green trail and take a right at the top of the hill. That will bring you to the S/Climb.

Our Feel the love sale has started this weekend. Find newly added sale items on our It’s Snow Discounted rack, from 33% to 50% off and select skis on sale for 25% off.

You know me I am always here for my true and honest review and at the moment frankly she is fierce out there. Snow conditions are good; weather conditions not so much. Coming out for a ski first thing will not be in your favour but it looks like things will settle down around 11 and is suppose to be a little calmer for the balance of the day. Chanse has regroomed everything with the Husky. You will find drifts out on the trails today. Classic will be the technique of choice.

If you are looking to get out the house for some shopping instead of ski do I have a deal for you! Today is Demo Day (I sure know how to pick em!) We will be setting up the brands inside so you can chit chat with their reps about the latest gear in nordic skiing. We are expecting Fischer, Madshus, Rosssignol, and Salomon. Our Feel the love sale has also started this weekend. Find newly added sale items on our It’s Snow Discounted rack, from 33% to 50% off and select skis on sale for 25% off.

Stay safe out there!
