The good: Pioneer rd grooming underway at 8:30; classic track will be set. The bad: be careful on North Douglas Hwy beyond the launch ramp; it’s a frozen mess The beautiful: not only is it awesome outside everywhere, sea lions will greet you on your way to ski!...Jan 15, 2024 | N.

Groomed for skate and classic. Surface is a bit soft and coverage is thinner the further south (wetter too) you go. Rocks at the old wash out. N. Douglas Hwy from school bus turnaround is unplowed, deep and heavy. IslandboyJan 15, 2024 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
0800 – I’m headed out to groom. Expecting some challenges as I need to drop grooming equipment and the parking lot is a bit of a mess. If I’m lucky and don’t get stuck I will be done by 11 but probably 12 is more realistic. I should be able to...Jan 14, 2024 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Squires and Islandboy used two CanAms to track pack then roll the road. No classic track set. The 2′ of powder became about 1″-3″. There are a few rocks – HOWEVER – it is still snowing and the warmer temps should bring higher density snow...Jan 14, 2024 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Squires & Islandboy will be out there this morning working on the 24″ of light powder snow. We will be initially using the CanAms to track pack and then hopefully switch to a roller. Not sure how it is going to turn out with the low density snow. If you come...Dec 14, 2023 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
The Pioneer Rd is dangerous right now with strong winds and multiple windfalls. When the storm abates we will be out there clearing a path. If you want to help give Wayne Carnes a call. The good news is we have been able to break in one of our new machines and expect...Mar 23, 2023 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
However we are not grooming due to the gravel patches that are hard on the equipment. When we get sufficient snow cover we will start grooming again – maybe this season and definitely next season :). wcMar 19, 2023 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
You may have noticed a wee bit of liquid from the sky. Apparently +.25″ overnight. First concern is to do no harm/not make a muck of what is there. Having consulted THE Oracle, the sagacious advice is “I would leave it alone.”Mar 18, 2023 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Grooming started around 11. Some thin spots but it should be great.Mar 18, 2023 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Grooming will start around 10 AM. Need to wait for the can-am to get back to PR.
