As you all know, we have had a BEAUTIFUL week of spring-like weather. You need to be strategic about when you ski the trails, even though they're at 8,000'. The best time to ski is earlier in the morning before things get too warm. The snow will start to turn to slush midday, especially in [...]
Wow, do we have SNOW! Easily 18” of new snow, and snowing all day! Your volunteer groomers packed down all that fluffy goodness and groomed all trails at the Sibley Trails except Tie Hack, Lower Blue Creek, and the out-and-back to the lake. We’ll touch up and set tracks today, so it will be a [...]

It's the lucky groomer or skier who gets to see the elusive elves who live in the woods along the Sibley Lake Nordic Trails.

Well, after a long dry spell, we're finally set to get some new snow! As we write this, the snow is finally coming down, and we're expecting snow all day Saturday. Even though we've not had much snow to groom, your volunteer groomers have been hard at work doing preliminary packing, stocking the warming hut [...]
Sadly, we've reached that time of year where varying temperatures and little new snow signals the end of the ski season. It's been a truly terrific season of skiing, snowshoeing and fat biking!
