Thank You Tour de Soup!

We are thrilled to announce that, thanks to the generous support of our Tour De Soup sponsors and the in-kind contributions of our NNSC club’s dedicated volunteers, we raised $961 to be shared between our club and another community organization.

Trails and Grooming Update

January 23, 2026

Good Morning,

As of 5:43am the temperature is -8c. 

Today should be mix of sun and cloud with a high of -3c.  Busk East and Euphrates is complete. Grooming is just getting started on the Apex side and will include Night loop, Stadium. Cottonwood and Clearwater are being left ungroomed today. They should still be in good condition as temperatures have remained below zero. 

Tour De Soup is tomorrow, 12 to 2. BYOB (bring your own bowl). There will be paper bowels for those who forget. 

Annual Club Fundraiser is open now!

🚨 Help Us Conquer Cardiac Hill! 🚨

East Busk Trail Upgrades & Cardiac Hill Reroute Fundraiser

If you’ve ever powered your way up Cardiac Hill, you know the name is well-earned. 😅

To improve performance, safety, and keep our trails open and skiable during low-snow conditions, we’re undertaking much-needed upgrades to the East Busk Trail and a reroute of Cardiac Hill.

These improvements will make your ski smoother, faster, and more enjoyable – now and for years to come. But we can’t reach the top without your help.

👉 Donate today and help us build better trails for everyone. All donors automatically receive a charitable tax receipt. 


🎉 Psst… Here’s the BIG news 🎉

Five anonymous champions of Nordic skiing in BC have stepped up with $18,000 in matching funds to kickstart this year’s Annual Club Fundraiser!

That means your donation goes significantly further, but only until the matching funds are gone.

💥 Here’s how the matching works:

  • Raise       $200 → Club receives $100 match
  • Raise       $800 → $300 match
  • Raise       $2,000 → $600 match
  • Raise       $4,000 → $1,000 match

📊 Do the math:

When a club raises its first $4,000, it receives $2,000 in matching funds; a 50% boost to every dollar donated.


⏳ Why act now?

  • Matching funds are limited
  • Trail work depends on early-season support
  • Your donation has maximum impact right now

💙 Help us reach the top of Cardiac Hill; literally and figuratively.

Donate today and make every dollar counts
