Trails & Grooming Report

December 1,2024

Good Morning Skiers,

We are Sooo close, don’t delay, the membership contest ends at 11:59 today, Dec 1st. Register through Zone 4 today to help us take the win! It is neck and neck between the Bulkley Valley, Nelson Nordic and Overlander Clubs. Now back to the report:)

The time is 6:25am and the temperature is -3c. No fresh snow over night. Skies should be partly sunny today with temperatures around 0c.

Grooming is well along, with Cottonwood, Apex loop and Rail grade complete. Busk Main and Euphrates are also complete, with East Busk and connector still waiting on another good snow fall. The grooming machine has just started up Clearwater. It hasn’t been confirmed but I think Clearwater main as well as the loops will be refreshed.

Yesterday, skiing was epic, for so early in the season, today should mirror yesterdays conditions.

Kal Tire:  By supporting Kal, you are directly supporting grassroots development of cross country skiing in BC.  A friendly request to please promote the $100 Kal coupon with your club members during the next 3 weeks (in newsletters, social media, email, etc).  As announced below, Kal Tire has teamed up with Nokian Tyres of Finland to offer a $100 discount on any set of Nokian tires, including the flagship Hakkapeliitta tire.  To add some fun, the 6 clubs that redeem the most coupons at their local Kal shop(s), on a per-member basis, will win $2000, $1500, $1000, $700, $500, and $300.  More details on everything in previous email below.

Fun facts:  Did you know that Finland (one of the world’s great cross country ski nations) invented:

  • the sauna (there are over 3 million saunas in Finland, an average of one per household)
  • the heart rate monitor
  • the rescue toboggan
  • the pulk
  • the winter tire!         (FYI Nokian is the only tire manufacturer in the world with its own permanent winter tire testing facility.)
