Was at Emerald all day yesterday, very windy and cold! Managed to put fresh tracks on the horse trail and Aluvian fan, however it was still windy when I left, so expect pine needles/debris in tracks and less than ideal conditions on the fan(windblown sections) If any body is going out, please let us know conditions!

Kicking horse fire rd has been packed and has a single track on it. Early season conditions, so expect some brush sticking out etc.
Tally ho has been packed, but no tracks yet.

Put fresh tracks on the Aluvian fan and horse trail last night(Friday Nov 29), John cut a path through the avalanche debris to access the horsetrail use caution as there might still be some stumps etc.

Update on Kick horse fire rd:

John worked on it yesterday(machine packed) Plan is to go back later today and do some more packing

There are now classic tracks on Tak Falls road. The intention is to keep these maintained all winter. Cautionairy note: A truck has created huge ruts for the first km or so. Use caution especially coming down the last hill!! Not great for skate skiing yet, but will try grooming for skate skiing next time.

Emerald update:

Horse trail has a track on it(use caution heading up the hill coming off the walking path(stumps/branches sticking out)

Packed the east shore trail, no track yet as it needs quite a bit more snow.

Packed the Peaceful pond trail for snowshoeing

Plan on doing the Kick horse fire rd/river trail  to Field VRC on Thursday so should be ready to go for Friday

We just got our SCANDIC 600 SWT SLED !!!! It’s in Golden waiting for us.
We’re loving this extra long summer weather but……thinking winter already!
Cheers, MT
