Conditions

We have moved into some granular conditions, that Chanse is working to clean up. With the warm wind yesterday it sucked up some of the base. It is Klister skiing today; our favourite and everyones favourite! The trails are holding up but the skiing won’t be as nice has it has been for the last week or so. We think the downhills will be fine and won’t get icy as people snowplow. Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Millennium Loop and Teals Tango are open! You won’t need to use your rock skis, there is good coverage through the network.

Remember to please respect opening hours. The trails open at 8:30 in the morning, we ask people to start coming off the trails at 4:30 so we are close up the building at 5. We plan to start the night skiing in the New Year. 

Make sure you read our COVID Winter Policies before attending. Please note for right now we won’t be offering lessons or rentals. We need to get ourselves a little more organized. It is not as straight forward this year! Remember we ask you use your vehicle as your base and do not leave bags in the building. Please limit your time inside to 15 minutes. 

You MUST wear a mask while in the building. Note that a wet buff coming in from skiing is not an effective mask. Please keep one handy when you go out for a ski for your return. 

We know there are a couple of tweeks we need to figure out with the contact tracing. Please be patient with us as we work through it. It is a new system for everyone, and we may be to figure out a few things as we go. We have a back up paper copy as an option as well. 

Contact Tracing and Active Screening must be done the for everyone coming onto the property the day they will be visiting. You cannot do this the night before. You can complete a form online. We request that you complete this before you show up. Note that cell service may not be good enough to do this onsite. Once the screening and tracing is complete you will receive an email that you will need to show at our health check station before you can head out to ski. Take a screen shot of your contact tracing so it is easy to find once you arrive! If the email you receive has comes back red, it mean you have answered YES to one of the screen questions. In that case you are NOT able to ski at our location that day. If the email you receive comes back green, we will see you on the trails shortly! 

We have a paper copy that can be done in person as a back up.

The snow is a little wet and sticky today. It is a great day to use waxless skis or skins for the classic skiers. Use some liquid glide to help push away the moisture in the snow so the snow doesn’t clump underfoot. Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Millennium Loop and Teals Tango are open! You won’t need to use your rock skis, there is good coverage through the network.

Ok have I blabbered on enough? Onto the conditions…

Conditions are great! Chanse has worked hard to open up some more trail this morning! It will still be a little soft because it has been warm, but the base has settled in to be little more compact. This is really going to help in the long term. Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Millennium Loop and Teals Tango are open! You won’t need to use your rock skis. Hawberry loop has some rollers in it, but there is good coverage through the network.

Conditions continue to be great out there. It will still be a little soft because it is warm, but the base is starting to settle which really helps to make a compact and solid base.

Right on schedule! We said December 1 was a good day to start the season and here it is. Dont let the webcams fool you it has been snowing like crazy out there. We will get the webcams up and running as soon as possible. Its going to take some time and build up a base, so the trails arent open just yet but we are working on it. Chanse is going to wait until it starts to slow down before he tackles it. He will need to first go on the snowmobile with the roller to push all the air out of the snow before he even thinks about actually grooming it. This will likely take the full day tomorrow. Stay tuned!
