SNOW CONDITIONS:
Latest Update: 3/22/23. 8:10AM
5km freshly groomed this morning with the Pistenbully. Classic spring skiing conditions expected today, with firm and fast snow in the morning followed by softer conditions by late morning. 20km groomed with ATV groomer in last 2 days as well. By late morning we expect the warming temps to soften the snow making for some nice skiing on all our open terrain. The snow is thinning out in a few sun exposed areas, and we’re now closed on Dave’s Dive and Jane Meadows trails. All other main trails open, but use caution especially early when it’s icier.
Programming notes:
- With daylight savings time here we’ll no longer turn on the lighted loop starting this week. With natural light lasting ’til 7pm, folks are welcome to ski after the shop closes at 5pm.
- Believe it or not we’ve been open 69 days for natural snow skiing this year (as of 3/22/23). This ranks as the 5th fewest # days open of 23 winters we’ve been in business. But 3 more open days this year will catapult us into the 7th fewest # days open of 23 winters. See bottom of this page for our full winter days open history.
- Road Report: Mud season has been kept at bay recently, with just your garden variety ruts and potholes. Things could get more interesting on Thurs. and Friday with warmth and rain. Plan on using higher clearance vehicles on those days.
- Now selling some of rental fleet – some skate, classic, kids, etc… Sales have been strong for adult waxless skis (we’re pretty much out), but plenty of waxless skis for kids up for sale now generally priced between $30 – $100. Call us up or stop by to check out what we’ve got. Also some boots and poles up for sale.
Gentle Reminders: Snowshoers please stick to the snowshoe trails only (not the ski trails). Fat biking, dogs, and walking on the ski trails is not allowed in winter. Thanks and have a great ski or snowshoe!
