We had a bit of + 1 temperatures late Tuesday afternoon and the trees did some weeping onto the trails—which created some icy sections and needles, branches….. AVOID the Horse TRAIL at Emerald Lake. There is a ski set track on the lake to access the FAN(beyond the usual skidoo track to get to the Horse Trail).
The Connector track is really quite good, a bit faster with small sections of crusty stuff from the trees. We recommend skiing on WIDE trails/roads that are NOT affected by tree crud. The Tally-Ho to the Natural Bridge is great. The Kicking Horse Fire road is nicely ski set and should be fine. The tree falling project is still happening at the Natural Bridge so parking is again an issue……park on the side of the road as before —when they did not have the parking lot ploughed. The trail is open!
I guess we have to pay for that beautiful weather and sunshine somehow!!
