BMS is gearing up for the 23/24 ski and snowshoe season. Trails were cleared and mowed in October ahead of the early snow! The ski chalet is expected to be in use before Christmas. We had a couple of snow falls here so far, but with the melting temperatures, trails are not yet groomed. However, trails are open for snowshoeing. Our club…[Read more]

Hi All! Found this page helpful in the past so thought I would join and share my 2c. I took the old fish scales up to BHP today, unsure of what to expect. Followed D Baniak’s tracks, it’s wet snow but really not terrible once you get past where the horse manure is. given it’s only november can’t complain too much. Season’s open, I’d say! All…[Read more]

So,I arrived at the park restaurant bldg at 12:30 with my “talking” skis. Set off on the Esk trail:nobody had been down it. I weaved my way around horse tracks and droppings breaking a trail where it seemed best. By the time I arrived at the junction with Lime Kln the horses were gone and I broke trail on the left side of the trail to the lookout,…[Read more]

Burwalde is groomed and the trails are in excellent shape. Thank you immensely to the groomer for opening so early in the season, it’s got to be a record.

So, will this be the earliest start ever, beating the Nov11/12 start?
If the thermometer stays as forecast a historical event may occur.-
Pascal Gariepy skied on Friday and posted it on the A Cross Country Ski Club Facebook group: “Beaudry Park this morning, I had to do it, first one out skiing but very clumpy so skied only 4 km, walked the rest”.
Today’s much colder temp may make it work. Rock skis mandatory.
I skied on October 29th in 2003. Perhaps I’ll beat my personal record today.

So, me and the G-man started today at 9:30 Apr 12 at the stables parking lot. Skied east Bluestem to the lookout, Chick loop,and Esk back to the parking lot. The ski track was very melted and shrunken, with the base of the track collapsing under my skis from time to time. I had decent luck keeping one ski in a track and placing the other…[Read more]

Tuesday, 7:00 to 10:30 AM, -1° to +6°, sunny, Group Use Road, icy to moist, needles and other forest debris reappearing, hoof prints, foot prints, and a kick sledder’s track that sank as deep as 5 cm in many places. Overall, good skate skiing. The current very warm temperatures and forecast rain late this week will accelerate the melting, but I t…[Read more]

I was out at 7:20 a.m. Mon. -1c. Chickadee had lots of footprints so I turned around and did West Bluestem in reverse direction. Still in pretty good shape and icy/crusty at that time of day. Lots of double poling and a very satisfying ski with effortless glide.
Good snow base so who knows how long it will last. -

@brentprusak I found a large spring on the skate trail yesterday that looks like its from the groomers suspension system. I put it in the groomers cargo bed. Can’t find an attach photo button but let me know if you want me to email a photo. Thanks for all the grooming you did this winter!

Great ski Saturday morning on Bluestem, Esker, Lime Kiln and Aspen! Conditions were firm and super-fast when we started, but softening by noon. Lots of skiers out there enjoying the beautiful sunny day, and possibly last classic outing. Hope it cools off enough so the trails will still be skiable!

The skate trails will be groomed early Sunday morning. Conditions for skating will be best likely until late-morning Sunday when they will start getting slower and sticky.
