Spring conditions on the Mountain this weekend. Icy in spots but a good base layer settling in for the winter. Skied Katherine/Compound on Sunday. Great skiing in the straight aways. More snow inbound.

Friends reported that the groomer came along just as they were finishing the Compound Trail yesterday afternoon. Trails in that area should be freshly groomed for today!

Hundreds of windfall branches covered the trail, as well as a couple of downed trees: we cleared them as best we could. We followed the very fresh tracks of…[Read more]

Today we skied the 11.2km Moose Lake Trail, right at the extreme SW tip of the park. A lovely forest trail, especially beautiful today with hoarfrost on tall trees.
Ski conditions were not bad at all: it hasn’t been groomed for at least a week and several snowfalls… but it’s been well skied, so tracks are holding up decently although pole plant…[Read more]

The Grey Owl trail was likely just tracked this morning. They double track set classic tracks all the way to the Grey Owl cabin. The grooming was excellent. Firm tracks. Very little debris. It was an absolute pleasure to ski on these tracks in a winter wonderland. Thanks to the groomer! Great work.
