(I’ve posted the tracksetting updates at the end of this post) The Wedge Connector, Evan-Thomas, and Bill Milne were all in excellent condition today. The snow stayed cold and should still be in good shape for tomorrow. Going downhill on Evan-Thomas I experienced fast tracks but not icy, and I…
It would have been a tragedy if these trails hadn’t been groomed this winter. I skied on near-perfect conditions today while doing the loop that includes Evan-Thomas, Wedge Connector, and Bill Milne. I hope everyone will buy a Kananaskis parking pass. Evan-Thomas was trackset last night for the first time…
Dec 27 at 9 pm Update from Tracksetter Jeff… “Hi Bob No more limbo on Bill Milne. Bill and Wedge Connector groomed tonight and are in great shape. I double tracked the Wedge Connector from Wedge Pond to the Evan-Thomas creek. For the time being it will not be groomed…

It’s the first day of spring tomorrow. The last time spring arrived this early was in 1896 — 124 years ago! It’s usually on March 20 and occasionally March 21. I was heading to PLPP to ski on yesterday’s new tracksetting, but stopped at Evan-Thomas to check the snow conditions.
It’s possible that conditions may have been this good at some point in the past, but I can’t remember when. It was -11°C with sunny skies and no wind at Kananaskis Village at 1:30 pm. I skied the Terrace north – Kovach Lookout – Kovach return to Village loop and…
I have an update on Goat Creek to post later tonight. I wish I could say I had the perfect tracks that Ernie and Maria enjoyed today. It’s incredible to see all the Ribbon Creek/Kananaskis Village/Bill Milne/Skogan Pass trails in such great shape. This trip report put a smile on…
What an incredibly enjoyable afternoon of skiing in Kananaskis today. The “circle is complete” and you can ski the 7K loop consisting of Evan-Thomas, Wedge Connector, and Bill Milne trails.
Dec 27, 2019 The Wedge Connector is ideal if you’re a beginner or novice skier. Christine and I took Ricky out for his first ever ski trip today on Wedge and at the conclusion, he said it was a lot of fun.
