    From Al Stewart on Sunday evening:
    I classic skied the High Lake trail on Sat and Sun this weekend. The trails were beautifully groomed for both classic and skate. Mid winter snow conditions and cold temps in the mornings but bright blue sky and mild in the afternoon. Next weekend should be great as well given the snow depth.

      A couple ideas to make this easier to get to the donation page:
      – could we get the donation link posted on the Wildwood updates page here on CCSAM? It just has the paper form right now
      – maybe we could get the donation page link to also be posted on the Wildwood…[Read more]

    I just finished a ski here today, for my first time. Lovely place, I’ll have to come back sometime.
    The classic trails were shallow for most of the trail and entirely blown in on other spots. There was a place near the north side the the classic trails were lost and so I started skate skiing- that seemed to work very well there with the well…[Read more]

  • I was at BHP Fri. 3:30-4:30. You may be bucking a 40-60 km headwind heading up the hill to the tower but the skiff of fresh snow has covered a lot of the debris. Some new stuff coming down but a net reduction in debris. There’s about 1 cm of new snow in the tracks with a little more in open areas.
    It looks like a great weekend to hit the trails…[Read more]

    Wildwood suffered a little from the wind, but is still good as of Wednesday evening. Some drifting in open areas, and a good bit of leaves, but classic was good and skate looked good as well.
