Mine was fantastic for skate skiing a few days ago and again on Sunday morning. At below freezing temps it was beautiful crust, ranging in depth from a few mm to many cm. When melting, it is transformed slush that a well prepared ski base glides over nicely. I can ski a loop up to 1.1 km. Some ponds are much…Read more

The golf course parking lot at Kildonan Park still isn’t plowed. So I decided to go to Harbourview. I think I was the 2nd or 3rd person to ski there because only 1 of the 2 tracks were used before me.
While the trails may have been groomed recently, I found they were fluffy snow over ice tracks. I will be going to Bird’s Hill Park…Read more

The 18 cm of snow that fell one week ago has finally melted down to ~5 cm on my local storm water retention pond, and the overnight minus temps set up a perfect skate skiing surface — fast with a bit of “give”. In fact, it might have been the best skate skiing track I have been on all season. The d…Read more
