Ski Trail

Ski Trail Report

Trails are open. Excellent mid winter conditions, really doesn’t get much better. Cooler weather in place but the sunshine days have been brilliant and skiing in the woods much warmer feeling than temperature suggests….Just Ski! The snow has transformed every so lightly which is a good thing and providing good action on the tracks. Skate skiing is a bit slower but the deck is solid and firm. We are touching up trails here and there after the entire trail system was groomed multiple times Friday-Tuesday.

We are excited to announce the return of Lotvola Cup on March 2nd, 2025. Click here for details.
