Today’s Haiku:
The storm was a miss
warm smiles as we loop 3k
white Christmas dream time
COUNTER CLOCKWISE SKIING TODAY ON THE 3km “Community Loop”. THIS MEANS GOIING TO THE RIGHT AS YOU ENTER THE TRAIL. We have changed to directional travel to reduce potential conflicts on the narrow sections of trail. Please ski with kindness and make room for everyone. We’ve shoveled tons of snow on the 3k loop over the last five days to help us stay open through Christmas. More of that hard work today, so be sure to stop and thank the people who are working to keep you skiing. You could even stop and help for a few minutes to spread the Joyful holiday glow. Just a touch up groom this morning in order to save snow depth. The surface this morning is good and the very short period of cold overnight and the light mist was helpful. The surface will be fast this morning and will be softening through the day. Best skiing will be from 9:30 to about 1 pm again today on red or purple wax. Please ski early if you are able to. The counterclockwise gliding will be quite good today if your skis are waxed and ready. The 5 km “Pond Loop” remains closed. Be very aware of thin spots and cart paths and big surface gaps if you venture out. The 5km side is only for the intrepid and rock skis. The penalty for catching an edge on the cart path is high.
Our shop and trail hours are 9am to 5pm daily. 9-3 Christmas eve and 10-3 Christmas Day.
You must have a trail pass purchased and displayed to access our trails. Everyone please ski counterclockwise and share the trail with happiness, Joy and good spirits. Greet the hardworking staff and your fellow skiers and keep an eye out for the ermine, snow bunnies and patches of grass along the edge. Thank you for being part of our amazing community! Ski safe and enjoy the holiday spirit even if the weather is a little grinchy!
