The Connector Trail between Emerald and Natural Bridge

“The Connector Trail between Emerald Lake and the Natural Bridge”

Yesterday—Joe and Bruce—along with the help of Michael Furfaro Jr. & David Allen—managed to push through the entire length of the Connector!

IT IS NOT TRACKED OR READY TO SKI JUST YET —NEEDS MORE SNOW!!

Our own logging crew working the blowdowns of last summer— the boys put in some 40 MAN-HOURS of cutting and removing of fallen trees! The worse shape we have seen the trail in since it was put in —circa early ’90’s!
We will inform you when we have enough snow to set a track and that it is safe to ski.
It remains and “intermediate to advanced trail”—especially the new steeper section close to the Natural Bridge. That said—pick your conditions and get out there and ski it with friends—do not let it intimidate you—it is a beautiful trail, close to the road most of the way.
No shame in WALKING DOWN STEEP SECTIONS !!
Enjoy the mild weather.

Alluvial Fan Bridge if FLOODING – do not cross!

With ever changing weather conditions–the  bridge at the top of the Alluvial Fan(skiing clockwise) has flooded over!  Do not cross it!  We suggest going counter clockwise to the back of the fan and returning the same way.

Trails were refreshed 2 days ago at Emerald–including the TREE HUGGER trail near shore.   Tally-Ho and Kicking Horse trail refreshed yesterday.  Were in good shape except for that IMPASSIBLE BRIDGE!

Merry Christmas everyone!
