Way da go, Rory and Deb. Delighted to hear your report. I have yet to do these two trails this year which are amongst my favourites. Great to read updates on grooming and how you spent your Valentine's Day! Heading out to Field Truffle Pigs Lodge and Bistro with grandkids this w/e. Likely opt for sledding in Field but might bring the skis just in case.....

It was a nippy -25 when we started our ski at 10am on Emerald Lake. Trail hadn’t been groomed for a while, so was skier set for Emerald Lake and the Alluvial Loop. Shortly after we finished Parks arrived to groom the trials. Snow base was good, and despite the cold temp, in the sun it felt quite nice.

After a snack break at the vehicle, we skied the Connector Trail. On the way to the Natural Bridge trail entrance, the trail was groomed. We met the Parks groomers (who were track setting the trail) on the way back. The trail is in pretty good shape. Not icy and no exposed spots. Groomers are doing a good job building up/repairing the trail where needed. Finished with -7 as the temperature.

Great blue bird ski day to celebrate Valentines.


Total distance: 20.00 Km

Along the Alluvial Loop
