From Danielle Dumesnil – Saturday Feb 4 – morning 9:30AM
The snow fairies were here…we had a bit of snow overnight and it is still coming down ever so gently this morning ! Yippee!

Roger’s Pass, Stroll, Easy Street & Blue Moon to Leary’s were renovated and groomed in the last two days. Hopefully the snow fairies will sprinkle that dusting of snow which is in the forecast. Caution on the valley road, it has some very icy sections. Parking lot is good. Mystery Tour postponed to Sunday Feb 12th, 2017.

From Danielle Dumesnil:

We have decided to err on the side of caution due to icy sections on the trail system.
We feel we can host a more pleasurable Mystery Tour for our participating skiers on Sunday Feb 12, 2017 with snow forecasted for next week.
