Winter greeting skiers,
We are still shy on our snow load but we do have quite a few trails open to x-c in Yoho.
Yesterday—Bruce and Joe were able to put the bridge in on the top of the alluvial fan.
Today—with the help of Pierre, Claude, Helen, Bruce and I shovelling snow and water onto the guard rail bridge—Joe was able to PACK a trail ALL around the Fan. Even got the 2 benches out at the far end! It’s skiable —with some ski set track—but will need new snow to be able to track it nicely. At least we can get out there and enjoy this fabulous sunshine.
Other tracks that are packed and track set—though marginal with lots of twigs and some rocks—are the trail from the INFO to the Natural Bridge, and down the Kicking Horse Fire Road to the Otterhead bench.
Of course there is the 1-A at the Lake Ohara turn off which fantastic–double track set and skate too– and taken care of by the Lake Louise track setters–Thank you guys!!!
Joe also plans to work on the Tak Falls road tomorrow–if all goes well !! Keep posted and enjoy what is there. Marilyn
