Notes

Small park near the end of the Gateway Trail. There is beautiful scenery with trails winding through pine forest, and near small lakes and picturesque farms. The course is quiet, sheltered, and has a lot of fun roling hills. Most of the terrain is intermediate in difficulty.

Conditions surprisingly good. In open areas last night's snow covered liter in the tracks. Under the pines, no new snow, lots of liter, some ice. Track is shallow but serviceable throughout. Overall good ski.

Skied from 11-12:30. First time I skied here. Really nice trail system that is nicely groomed. Trails are fully covered with snow, but also a fair bit of liter, particularly under the pines. Probably best to leave the race skis home. Track is set throughout though it appeared shallow in numerous places. We just some more snow and the cold to hold!

Once again, this hidden gem of a XC ski trail delivers! Pine Point groomers must've been out this morning or midday, as the skate deck was primed for skiing! Perfect corduroy, snow coverage excellent (obviously some debris in spots, ) but all navigable. Classic tracks in tip top condition too! No one was out there around 1:30pm this afternoon. Big thanks to the groomers for keeping these trails well-groomed and cared for, for us skiers.

Trails were groomed for skate skiing today. Existing tracks are still in place. Trails have coverage but may have drifting due to heavy winds. Debris is present.

A perfect choice for a cold windy day. Although we've biked through Pine Point many times, and I've been trail running there once, it was our first time skiing it. I found the pines even more beautiful on a sunny crisp winter day than in summer. Green, blue, white, and black were the colors there today. Oh, and the snow was great too! The classic tracks were deep and solid and the skate deck looked smooth and firm too. When we got there at 3 pm it still didn't look like many people had skated since it had been groomed.

All trails freshly groomed, nice soft new snow. Classic tracks set on most trails but there were a few sections missing tracks. Some oak leaves already but overall nice conditions at Pine Point today. Some occasional sticks, cones, snow/dirt mix but could use good skis if careful.
