Skate and classic set to Big Mountain.
Both should ski well tomorrow. (Well, I think the classic will. Did most of that in the dark with inoperable grooming light.)
Good freeze tonight 16 degrees when we finished.
Still a little thin for a wee bit. Coverage gets good after a short ski.

Good Morning,
We received about 3 inches of fresh snow overnight! We were able to groom for skate and set the classic on the entire 4.5km lower track. We also groomed for skate and reset the classic on the upper track. Conditions are firm from colder temperatures overnight. The coverage on the tracks is increasing!
Come enjoy some fresh trails,

Fairview received another skiff of snow late yesterday. Temperatures dropped overnight too. The track was groomed this morning, both skate lane and a new classic track set. Outcome was impressive…..Beautiful conditions here so come and ski.
Mountain Dell
Main, mitten, boomerang, lollytop, kids and park cutoff groomed for skate and classic this morning. 3 to 4 inches of new snow and snowing hard as we finished. Coverage is good but watch out for few thin spots still lurking out there. Skiing should be good with little powder on top. Enjoy!

Winter is here! Almost a foot of snow in the last 24 hours! It will take a while but we’ll be roll packing and grooming all of the trails today. 5k, 3k first then the dog loop, Farm and Armstrong. Trails will be soft today with all the new snow. Fresh, soft snow will make for excellent classic conditions all day. Skating will be good but soft and slow. Ski a flat ski and you’ll definitely be rewarded with good gliding conditions. Come and visit us if you can. It is absolutely beautiful out this morning and one of the few days so far this season that actually looks and feels like winter. All 22km will be groomed and track set this morning. It is full winter conditions now so drive with care, walk with care, ski with great Joy! Please purchase your pass and wear it. Watch for elk on the Farm. Blue wax for kick and glide today. Please continue to be aware, careful and ski within your abilities. Ride the bus, micro transit, carpool, skateboard, cycle, e-bike or walk if you can. Parking is available all around the hotel and underground but everything you can do to reduce single driver trips helps! Come play in the snow, share the adventure, say hello to the bunnies and ducks and enjoy what should be an amazing winter ski day!

SR-65
Groomed for skate and classic to the first switchback. Four inches at the gate and ten and the switchback. It will be soft for skate, but the moist snow seemed to set up better than expected. The classic track looked very good. Caution down low: The 4″ were on top of asphalt or very thin snow/ice in places.
Fairview
Fairview has received quite a bit of new snow the last couple nights. Yesterday and today the track was groomed to compact the new snow and build base. Snow added underneath trees in a few spots where it had melted off. Current conditions are a packed trail for skating but no classic track set yet. Plan for Friday is to re-groom the skate lane and add a classic track. Cold nights in the forecast should help and provide good skiing the next several days.

Good Morning,
We received about 3 inches of snow yesterday and an additional 3 inches in the overnight! We were able to groom for skate and set the classic on the entire 4.5km lower track. We also groomed for skate and reset the classic on the upper track. Conditions are firm from the colder overnight temps but should soften up throughout the day.
Come enjoy some fresh trails,

Groomers are out right now finishing up grooming the manmade trails. A light layer of new snow is currently still falling on top, but it is expected to stay somewhat cool today. Conditions may still be soft because of the new snow. It is expected to clear up this afternoon and should be a lovey day for skiing!

Hi. 4″new snow and 20°F/-7°C at 0750. All trails groomed for classic and skate skiing.
White Pine
Oh, it is looking like such a beautiful ski day.
About five inches of heavy snow yesterday covered with an inch of cold fluff this morning. Feel the Joy! Come and ski if you can. There will always be another meeting to go to on a day where the skiing won’t be quite as good! Drop in, turn off you phone and spend some quality time with yourself.
All 22km will be groomed and track set this morning. All trails are open, it will be a bit slow again this morning with the cold fresh on top of wet snow. As the day goes on it should just get better and better. Classic will be very good today and skate should be firmer through the day. Watch for a couple of icy areas on trails and walkways from all the moisture that has been around this week. Stay flexible, aware and ski with Joy! The 5km, 3km and Armstrong loops will be groomed first today. The Farm and Dog Loop will be groomed and classic track set after with the snowcat. If you go out to the Farm, ski with care and enjoy the arrival of winter conditions. Please purchase your pass and wear it. Watch for elk on the Farm.
Blue wax early, Red/purple wax and structure from mid day. Please continue to be aware, careful and ski within your abilities. Ride the bus, micro transit, carpool, skateboard, cycle, e-bike or walk if you can. Parking is available all around the hotel and underground but everything you can do to reduce single driver trips helps! Come play in the snow, share the adventure, say Hello to the bunnies and enjoy what should be a very nice winter ski day!

We’re back, but it is like Day One all over again. Mark and Nils are grooming about 4-5 inches of light snow this morning. Like early season, hazards lurk not too far below. Your best skis not recommended, and skate will be iffy until things set up. Classic might be best today. Main, Mitten, Kids Cutoff, Park Road Bypass, Boomerang and Wiggle Room set for skate and classic. Lollipop top has corduroy but no classic, but be careful skating there! Good chance of pushing down to pavement, especially before afternoon today. Lollipop handle will stay closed.
