Trail and Grooming Update

April 6, 2025

Good Morning and welcome to the last day of the ski season, we will be closed on April 7th for the season.

As of 6:45am the temperature is -3c. Today will be sunny with a high of +15c.

Grooming is complete on Clearwater. Busk/Euphrates is in progress and the conditions should be great for a glorious morning ski. 

Thank you to all of our partners, sponsors, staff, volunteers, members, and visitors for helping us make the 2024/25 year a stellar one, we can’t wait to see you next year:)

It is not to late to help us cross the finish line of the annual Club fundraiser.

5 anonymous donors in BC are pitching in an additional $2,000 for a NEW challenge in the Annual Club Fundraiser!  The BC Cross Country club that raises the most $ between now and the campaign deadline on April 7 will get an additional $1,500 and runner-up will get $500! We have a fair way to catch up to the leader who has raised $2800 already!

What a difference a year makes! Thanks to your support, we’ve made strides in enhancing our trails. This year, we successfully completed significant upgrades to a bridge & made improvements to several sections of our trails, ensuring a safer, smoother & more enjoyable experience for everyone.

But we’re not stopping there—there’s still more work to do!

In the coming year, we’re focused on addressing key challenges and improving the quality of our trails to meet our long-term vision. We’ve just received approval to fix a troublesome section of trail that has struggled with low snow conditions, & we’ll continue to raise the bar on trail quality with additional upgrades, including:

  • Enhancing drainage on low-lying sections
  • Smoothing out uneven trail sections for better skiing
  • Addressing problem areas affected by low snow conditions

Planning is ongoing for our long-term goal to expand our trail system, and we are working on securing approvals and funds for the next phase, with initial project estimates upwards of $270k.

With your help, we can keep improving and expanding our trail system! Donate now & you’ll receive a tax receipt for your contribution.​
