Cross Country Ski Trails

Blue Hills Trails report:ย 

Lovely cold January day in the Hills yesterday. Bluebird sky, fresh powder, quiet skis, winds in the treetops, woodpeckers hammering, crows talking. When you stop to appreciate your surroundings, it really isn't a silent sport, is it?

Grooming Report

  • Groomers rolled (packed) the East Side trails yesterday afternoon & evening.
  • We received several dry powder snowfalls this past weekend, groomersย packed the powder snow acrossย the width of the trails, and this included wiping out the classic track on the East Side trails.
  • The West Side trails were not groomed yesterday and still have 2-3 inches of powder snow and a well defined classic track.

Grooming Plans

  • If he can tolerate today's subzero temps, our head groomer hopes to reset classic track on the East Side Core Loop this afternoon.
  • Holding off on setting more classic track on the East Side trails until after windy conditions decrease later this week. That way we'll have a fresh track with minimalย oak leaves, pine needles, etc.
  • Based on the weather forecast, Thursday evening would be a good time to set new classic track.

Ladysmith Area Trails report:

Sisters farm trail report. Jim groomed the skate lane on the East side and looks good. We did not have enough snow to redo the track on either side of the road. Dave groomed the west side trails for bikes and snowshoeing and should be excellent for fat bikes. Track needed to be skied in but should also be good.ย ย Enjoy!
