Greetings.
Winter is back! The Massie Hills trails have been freshly groomed and trackset this morning with about six inches of fresh snow. The trails are generally in excellent shape, with the odd damp spot. The groomers will be out again on Sunday morning as we continue to receive more snow this weekend. Enjoy!
Thanks,
Chris

Our dedicated groomers were out grooming the Massie Hills Trail today and report that we have six inches of new snow on most of the trail. The trail through the hardwoods is in good shape but under the spruce trees the base is thin and a bit icy. It looks like we should get a decent amount of snow over the weekend and be back in business. The frequency of grooming over the weekend will depend on the availability of our volunteer groomers.
Thanks,
Chris

The Massie Hills Trails were groomed this afternoon after receiving about 4 inches of fresh snow and are in passable shape for the most part. If you come across a flat section that is not groomed, or taped off with red flagging tape, it means that the section is flooded and you should not go there. Considering all the rain we received we are happy to still have some base left to work with.
It is still January, so despite the warm weather we have had and the warm weather coming this weekend, we should still have a bit of winter left for skiing.
Thanks,
Chris

I hate mid-winter thaws! However, that said, the trail conditions at the Massie Hills are better than you might think by looking at your front lawn. There is still plenty of snow in the woods and we have a decent base that is still track-set. The trails are in decent condition with some icy and a few wet sections. The long range forecast is a bit of a roller coaster with above and below freezing temperatures over the next couple of weeks. As long as we get some more snow to groom we should be in good shape for a while.
Thanks,
Chris
