Skate skied the Lake circle yesterday, but it was slow going. I thought you could stay on top due to the melt, but you do sink. Two snowmobile tracks would be sufficient grooming, but they would have to be beside each other. It took an hour and a half instead of 45 minutes to do the 5 Km. Recommend parking by Stride so you start and end there…[Read more]

Portage Junkyard Dogs groomed about 6 km of ski trails on the Portage Golf Course. In sheltered areas the trail is in good condition. In wind swept areas the snow is thinner so be prepared to step around the odd patch of gravel or grass exposed by grooming.

The golf course management generously offers this as a ski area in winter and reminds us…[Read more]

Trails are coming soon. I checked the golf course and we need to wait for one more snowfall before we start grooming. There are just too many in-between areas that are blown clean or very thin. My fingers are crossed for next weekend. Either way, I will post an update here.
