Nordic Pulse

Thursday 29-Jan '26 8:30 AM     

.

SHORT VERSION:  -0.2°C @ 8:15 AM.  Snocat grooming/tracksetting of The Loop*. Good conditions.

.

LONG VERSION:  The air temp has been above 0°C since 10:30 yesterday morning, & hit a high of 2.5 °C overnite. Conditions should be excellent on The Loop*, & good anywhere else (snow surface the right kind of soft for good skiing) that has been groomed within the last 2 days; check detailed report below. The grooming staff is continuing the fragile balancing act between keeping the trails skiable each day, and not hastening the deterioration of the snowpack with un-necessary tilling/massaging of the snow surface. We should be able to make our way thru the next few days of warmish, potentially wettish weather with careful curation of the trail snowpack.

Today -  Environment Canada RADAR shows some precipitation approaching from the southwest. At these borderline temperatures, it's difficult to predict whether it will fall as snow, or "the other stuff".
