Who's ready to ski?

Before we can start dreaming of fresh tracks and crisp winter days, we need to clear our trails! The spring ice storm left a bunch of trees down, and we need some extra hands to help us clear the way for a smooth season.

No Moonlight ski for March

13 Mar 2025

Megan Gamble

We were hopeful that we'd get another moonlight ski in this season but with the icy conditions and impending rain, we've decided that it's probably not a smart move. We'll hope for more amicable conditions in 2026.  

Pancakes and Fat Bikes

Megan Gamble

23 Feb 2025

Join us this Sunday February 23rd for some fun events:

First: Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser for the ski team. 9am-12pm

Next up: Fat Bike Demo Day. 10am-2pm. See what all the hype is about. Bring regular boots as ski boots aren't recommended. 

Finally: Nordic Downhilling Clinic: 1-2:30pm. Great for novice skiers to gain confidence going down hills. $35. Register online or in the rental trailer. 

UPDATE: too much snow!! Stop the snow dance. We're good. Unfortuately we need to cancel tonight's moonlight ski as the roads are in poor condition and not expecting to get any better any time soon. Hope to see you in March :) 

Join us for a magical evening of skiing under the waning snow moon.  Enjoy a hot chocolate, fire, and s’mores  followed by an open-mic coffeehouse and social in the Woodfine Chalet.

Date: Sat Feb 15th.

Guided ski starts at 7pm. Social to follow.

Free for members. Non-members need an evening trail pass.

Rental trailer will be open if anyone needs to rent equipment.
