Closed

It's official. The gate has been closed and ski season has come to an end. Thanks to everyone that came up and enjoyed using the facility, the season was pretty darn good.

update

Conditions are pretty sad as the rain has iced everything up. No grooming has been done as the warm spring weather is upon us. The gate is still open but it is ski at your own discretion. The snowshoe trails are also icy under the trees and are a bit hazardous.

conditions

Groomed up the skate lanes on the dog trails, Gun barrel, Cataline, BX, Wrangler. Repaied the holes left by the snowshoe tracks so should be safe to ski again, Conditions didn't allow to set any tracks so if you go ski, just be cautious. Enjoy

Snowshoeing Trails and Cross Country Ski Trails

Snowshoers please stay on the designated snowshoe trails.  Significant damage was done to the skate lanes on several trails during the warm weather.  Leaving 4-6" holes in the trail surface, making it very difficult and unsafe for skiers.

The snowshoe trail system starts by the lower parking lot at the large fir tree where a map is posted and trail junction marked as the beginning of the Maison Trail.  All junctions have maps and signs.  The trail is marked with yellow flagging tape and yellow snowshoe signs.  Snowshoe / Ski trail maps are available on the website and can be downloaded and used with Avenza Maps.  This app also provides GPS location so you know where you are.

Thanks for the great season so far and we will keep you posted on trail conditions.

Condition update

Groomed in about 4cm of fresh snow on Gunanoot, Cataline, Gun Barrel, Wrangler and all the dog trails. Conditions are awesome so get out and ski. Snowshoe people, please stay on the snowshoe trails and not on the ski trails. Thanks a bunch.

Update

Set 2 tracks on Gunanoot but was snowing pretty good as I finished. Should be good. Heading back out tonight weather permitting. All the trails have tracks set with a bit of fresh snow on top.
Enjoy.
