Windsor Park Nordic Centre

Fresh snow, high winds tonight. The nordic center will be closed this evening. Grooming will comence Wednesday morning.

-5C yesterday evening and the groomed trails were more than amazing! Was nice to see lots of people out at the nordic centre night skiing. Lots of deer gathered over on Brent’s loop. It seemed as though everyone from kids to families to couples to biathletes and groups of people together were skiing and enjoying the nice weather. Nothing short…[Read more]

Trails were groomed again today. Hopefully winds won’t cause too much drifting. Work continues on the SKIPLAY area. Hope to get the trails all fine-tuned for the warmer weather forecast for later this week.

All trails have been groomed for skate and classic as of 4PM today. Main Grid has also been groomed and trackset. Happy Skiing!!

All skate lanes were all groomed / refreshed on January 2. Including Jimmy’s Dip and Gord’s Grind. Coyote & Blue Oval grids were set. Games area was groomed along with skate lane around the main grid. Prep work is being done on “BIG DOG” (experts only) and the new Jackrabbit Play area. Great to have all of this fresh snow to work with!!

Just want to give a shout out to the hard working staff at Windsor Park and thank them for all their efforts in improving the trail system. Pretty much every trail has been improved by adding additional loops, grooming a better line to avoid off-camber skiing or traditional trouble areas, improved signage and safety (closing the dangerous wooden…[Read more]

Skied a couple laps of Blue this evening. Bit of a moot report, given the forecasted snow, but just wanted to send a hats off to the groomer. Conditions have been really good since our early Nov snowfall. Classic was very good this evening, and the skate was good also. My last ski there was the morning of Dec 24, so it was groomed some time…[Read more]

Took the family on the 24th and must say I was disappointed. Classic tracks have disappeared in many places and in general classic tracks seemed worse than just a week ago.

ALL trails have been packed, and trackset as of 3PM Thursday, December 23. Both creek crossings are open: Jimmy’s Dip and Moonrise. Conditions have never been better!

Trails freshly groomed Dec 21 and in great shape. Enjoy, everyone!

I went late last night, did 10km, and had a good time. Snow conditions were mixed, a lot of ice, and after today’s heat, I’d probably wait until another good dump falls. There were a few questionable areas with some ground starting to show. Was quite surprised to see so many deer on the trail, it made me hungry.

The classic tracks on the Green Loop were in great shape this afternoon!

I’m a new skier so I’ve just been skiing the grid (nice a flat!) Tonight was lovely. Freshly groomed from the snow we got yesterday and crisp cold snow. The clear ski was beautiful.

We’re trying to keep the ice at bay and so far, so good. Overheard a recreational skier say “a little icy but not too bad”. That will have to do until we’re blessed with more snow. Enjoy the weekend everyone!

After that big melt yesterday the skate lanes are being renovated today. classic tracks will remain icy until the next snowfall. We will have all the trails in best possible shape by later this afternoon

Conditions are good. Not too icy. A bit challenging for beginners in spots but good overall. Some lights are out so use caution when night skiing, please. Enjoy!

From Jim the Groomer: “ Good morning all skate is renovated. Ice is gone.”

Skate ski today. Trails were good for not being groomed in the what looked like the last couple of days. Trails were fair and the skate deck was near perfectly flat everywhere. A little firm in spots and especially on the downhills and takes a little more control. There was debris around but nothing really that looked as though it would affect…[Read more]
