Pumpkin Creek

From Danielle Dumesnil on Monday evening:
Hi All,
The rain today melted away the snow. Time to hang up our skis. It has been a great year. See you next year.

Hello!
430PM Saturday
Still snow on trails – crispy in the morning, soft in the afternoon.
A beautiful day in the valley! Skiers hung out on the deck.
Some skiing left on the trails!!
Best Danielle

From Pumpkin Creek Ski Club on Friday evening:
It has been a windy week in the valley.
Don will go out and groom tomorrow Saturday.
Trails in the woods are usually fine.
Lots of snow in the valley.

I had my first trip ever to Pumpkin Creek and it was excellent. I went on Easy Street followed by most of Roger’s Pass and finished up Stroll. It was a lot of fun and great weather.

Greetings,
The latest blizzard wiped out the trail system.
Don spent the first part of the day packing, said there were some wild snowdrifts!
Later in the afternoon, he groomed Stroll, (Not So) Easy Street & all of Blue Moon.
Roger’s Pass is packed but will be groomed tomorrow Monday in daylight. That trail got lots of snow.

Hi All,
The decision has been made to cancel the Mystery Tour for this year and let the Covid surge dissipate. Mystery Tour is about a packed clubhouse full of friends laughing and eating, re-connecting. It may still be a little too early for that.

Therefore, we are going to be grateful for what we have this year and enjoy…[Read more]

Trails were groomed Sat Feb 5th

Trails were re-groomed early Saturday morning Jan 8th.

Came back today for another Birchkin Pumpski — this time with my partner in tow. Started at the Pumpkin Creek end, just to mix things up.

Both halves had been regroomed this morning after the fresh snow, hooray, so conditions were much the same as yesterday… except warmer! Only a very few spots with drifting, and these were well-skied. Most of…[Read more]

From Danielle Dumesnil on Thursday evening:

Be good to yourself, to each other and to Pumpkin Creek!

On Sunday there were high winds and blowing snow in Winnipeg, but in the valley at Pumpkin Creek, the conditions were ideal. The wind was minimal, the snow was good and the trails were sheltered and in very good condition. We skied the Blue Moon in the morning and the other trails in the afternoon. Well worth the trip.

Should have posted this earlier but went here on Wednesday to find the trails to be in near perfection (excellent) shape. I found only one small rock in the right track on the way out on the Blue Moon trail and also 2 small ice flows on the return of this same trail. The Club trail was also groomed.

The whole trail system was groomed today except for the CLUB Trail .
Don our favourite groomer said trails looked great with the new snow that fell yesterday Sunday.

Pumpkin Creek has really done the best they can with limited snow, and we had a good ski there this afternoon. Tracks were hard and a bit shallow, and there has been lots of animal traffic, but they’re fairly continuous except in a few very open areas. Most trails within the valley are groomed. The Club Trail is not groomed, nor are the farthest s…[Read more]

Skied Blue Moon yesterday and Stroll today. Tracks were good (a little blown in by the Brickyard as expected in the open). So great to be skiing in November! Big thanks to Groomers & Volunteers for getting the trails ready for the season!
