New classic trail construction finished
by Joel on Nov.01, 2009, under Advocacy, Goldstream Classic Ski Trail, Ski
We finished cutting about 4 additional km of ski trail today. It will be a blast but we do need another foot of snow before we will have it dialed with the grader and tracksetter. We should have a detailed map with accurate distances by Ski Fest. For now it is passable on rock skis but very bumpy with lots of sticks. Back Country skis would be best now, race skis when we have enough snow will work great. Thanks to Tyson, Kai and Lorien for all their hard work. Joel
Birch Hill Ski Report
by Joel on Oct.30, 2009, under Ski
Birch Hill Nordic Area has a 1-2 inch packed base. The skating is amazing considering the thin snow cover. I skied most of the trails yesterday and felt my skies hit some thing only a couple times. I would recommend rock skis. Time to ski, winter if finally here. Joel

Skiing Ester Dome
by Joel on Feb.17, 2009, under Ski
I have been enjoying skiing on Ester Dome. I usually start from St Patricks Rd and ski up. I have skied to Ester, The base of the Alder shoot and just exsplored the trails. I found some new trails that will be fun on the mountain bike as well. It is a great work out and has been a good diversion from serious training and driving to Birch Hill. The trail has been used by snow machines just enough to make it fun to ski On my Nordmarka light touring skis. I am considering setting a classic track on the trails where I can set it off to one side leaving room for the snow machines to avoid it. Would it last? We would find out.
