Wow! Pine Point is well groomed and beautiful. We only get snow like this every few years and the park was getting good use. It is one of those days that people bring a friend to experience skiing for the first time. Lots of beginners, some kids, some people who look to ski either a few times a year or once every few years. My only scare was a boy laying in the woods at the bottom of the trail. His mom assured me he was just getting a nature fix.

All ski trails were packed and tracked this morning. With the recent snowfall, trails have great coverage.

I skated every inch of the park with a wide smile on perfectly groomed trails! The skate lane is firm and wide and the classic tracks appeared solid. New sections this season add a little more terrain to this fantastic network of trails. Hats off to the groomers for getting things done so quickly after all this snow!

Minimal classic trail set. Much prefer former 2-way Classic set trails. Trail directions not clear.

Classic skied at 1pm. Best classic tracks I've seen at PP in years. They've changed the direction for skiing and it not what was but I like it. Just follow the signs. Some of the trails were rerouted with input from our club. It's almost like skiing a new area down by the Outing Lodge. And, the place is groomed for skate as well. The fat bike trails have been packed and were firm enough for riding. The Gateway trail had not been plowed or groomed at PP.

Ski trails have been packed. Conditions are considered to be in fair conditions with ice underneath the snow.

Trails have been packed. Snow is thin on the ground so the trails are considered to be in fair to poor condition. No tracks have been set.
