April 3, 2020: Grooming happened today at Candle Creek x country trails!The bend, beetlewood, sentinels, swamp and east west raft completed. Conditions very good although the chalet side of the swamp loop is a bit sketchy. Amazing we are still going April 3rd.
Very easy to correctly social distance so for those looking to get out for some fresh air on the weekend here is a great option. If you are using the chalet please respect social distancing and limit numbers.
NEW THIS YEAR- The Club has designated some of the trails as CANINE Friendly!
Note to Skiers: Please be advised that there will be limited snowmobile activity on the cross country trails from mid December to mid January. Kurt Dodd Contracting will be identifying potential areas for fuel management activities (forest fire mitigation) during fall 2020. They will use adjacent roads and ungroomed trails as much as possible. Some use of groomed trails can be expected but no impact on set tracks. In most cases activity will be limited to Mon – Fri. We will keep you up to date if any changes are anticipated.
Fuel management is a necessary activity to ensure the potential for forest fires is minimized in our community. This also provides much needed employment to people in our community during trying times so please be patient with this minor inconvenience.
