  • I’d like to echo what some have said from time to time: THANK YOU to the BHP trail groomers for an absolutely amazing ski season!!!!

  • A big thank you to Brent for the excellent grooming. It was such a pleasure to ski at Wildwood this winter. I made a donation this morning. 🙂

  • So, me and the G-man started today at 9:30 Apr 12 at the stables parking lot. Skied east Bluestem to the lookout, Chick loop,and Esk back to the parking lot. The ski track was very melted and shrunken, with the base of the track collapsing under my skis from time to time. I had decent luck keeping one ski in a track and placing the other…[Read more]

  • Tuesday, 7:00 to 10:30 AM, -1° to +6°, sunny, Group Use Road, icy to moist, needles and other forest debris reappearing, hoof prints, foot prints, and a kick sledder’s track that sank as deep as 5 cm in many places. Overall, good skate skiing. The current very warm temperatures and forecast rain late this week will accelerate the melting, but I t…[Read more]

    Monday April 10, 2023 We have had an amazing ski year as we CLOSE THE GATES at Pumpkin Creek for 2023. We will see you next year ! Thanks to our skiers, volunteers and skiers.

  • I was out at 7:20 a.m. Mon. -1c. Chickadee had lots of footprints so I turned around and did West Bluestem in reverse direction. Still in pretty good shape and icy/crusty at that time of day. Lots of double poling and a very satisfying ski with effortless glide.
    Good snow base so who knows how long it will last.

  • @brentprusak I found a large spring on the skate trail yesterday that looks like its from the groomers suspension system. I put it in the groomers cargo bed. Can’t find an attach photo button but let me know if you want me to email a photo. Thanks for all the grooming you did this winter!

  • Wildwood skate track groomed this morning Hole #8 included. Classic was not groomed but it’s still in good shape with the exception of Hole #8.

    Hi Brent. I would like to throw in my thanks. You have made this a most enjoyable season.

  • Great ski Saturday morning on Bluestem, Esker, Lime Kiln and Aspen! Conditions were firm and super-fast when we started, but softening by noon. Lots of skiers out there enjoying the beautiful sunny day, and possibly last classic outing. Hope it cools off enough so the trails will still be skiable!

    The skate trails will be groomed early Sunday morning. Conditions for skating will be best likely until late-morning Sunday when they will start getting slower and sticky.

  • Temp is forecast to be -2 C at 4 am Sunday. I hope to groom the skate track early Sunday 5 am for the last time this year. Might be great conditions Sunday morning till about 11.

  • Trails groomed again this morning, April 8. South-exposed slopes (Black Diamond, Creekside, Foxhole) are icy. otherwise conditions are remaining excellent for spring skiing.

  • Friday 6-9pm. Classic tracks good, icy and some side crust in sunny sections, hard snow in shaded. Red wax worked well over a 15 km ski. GUR skate track looked awesome. Not many people out at the best time of evening. Would have stayed longer to do some skate skiing after dark , but did not pack donuts and coffee. Dumb… Fail…

  • Awesome ski in Windsor Park today, early afternoon, with my skin skis. Much appreciate the post-storm grooming!❄️

    Please consider making a tax deductible donation so we can improve the signage and perform off season groomer maintenance. We really appreciate all donations, let’s make a better trail system for next year.

    Wildwood golf course loop groomed this evening. Likely the last groom of the season.

  • Floyd Reichel posted an update in the group Group logo of BittersweetBittersweet 6 months ago

    Robin egg blue sky, pristine white snow and excellent groomed trails made for a very enjoyable ski today. Tracks are holding up nicely and are well formed. Conditions should be very good tomorrow but you would have to ski early as possible in the day. Thanks, Lynn for the timely and descriptive reports all winter long and the dedication you and…[Read more]

    • You are very welcome, and great advice about getting out there early tomorrow. Thanks for coming today!
