I’ve got some great news… Lots of new snow in PLPP. At 2 pm today, Elk pass already had about 8 cm of new snow, and it was still snowing quite heavily. Chip’s wish came true, and Pocaterra had about 4 cm of new snow. I would expect the groomer…
We all like to hear reports of the trail conditions. Please leave a comment or send me an email if you were skiing today. The Banff Trail Report shows Goat Creek is now trackset. It was a gorgeous day at Ribbon Creek. I skied there and can tell you the conditions…
Pocaterra Hut is now open Decisions decisions! What a lucky bunch we XC skiers are. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many trails available to us at this time of year. Now, with Pocaterra hut open, I expect there will be a large contingent of skiers wondering about Pocaterra…
