WinMan Trail Conditions

Trail update: Hard to know exactly how much snow we got this weekend with all the drifting but I’d guess it was 12-15″. We have been rolling trails all day today and will attempt to get some of the ski trails groomed and track set on Tuesday. I plan to look at the bike trails…

Trail update: Hit again – this time 6″+ and still snowing. We just finished packing and grooming the ski trail but did not set track. They will need to be groomed again tomorrow and will be track set at that time. The snowshoe and bike trails haven’t been groomed. Speaking of the bike trail –…

Trail update: All the trails were groomed today and the ski trail had fresh tracks put down. Snowshoe trail is in excellent shape and ski trail is in very good shape with just a little softness on the surface. The bike trail is a mixed bag with the shady sections nice and firm and the…

Fatbike trail update: I hit the remaining trails that did not get groomed last night – Yellow from Cut-Off to the Hub, Jump Line and Roller Creek this morning. They will likely be soft and challenging to ride today. The trails that were groomed last night have setup nicely with a solid, firm base. There’s…

Trail update: The snowshoe and ski trail was groomed first thing this morning and the ski trail was trackset. While Justin and I were grooming the ski trail, Tom, Joe, Laurie, Fitz, Christa and my wife Alison where stomping the fat bike trails that didn’t get packed yesterday. What a difference that made – it…

Trail update: Had both Snowdogs out this morning and it took hours to slog through just the Demo, Bridge, Twins, part of Hub and Trial & Air bike trails. To call them groomed and rideable would be a total lie. We are exhausted and giving up for the day. I’m going to pick up a…

Trail update: The weatherman just ruined his perfect record – he finally got one right. We have been getting heavy snow all day as predicted – 8+ inches so far and it’s still coming. I packed the snowshoe trail this morning and Justin and I made a lap around the entire ski trail system getting…

Trail update: Perfect timing – the snow started just as the last skier came in for the freestyle leg of the Turtle River Pursuit on Sunday. In all, we picked up 3-4″ of fluff and groomed the snowshoe and ski trails and set new track today (the bike trail was not groomed). It sounds like…

Weekend update: As most of you know, we are hosting the freestyle leg of the Turtle River Pursuit at WinMan on Sunday. This will have some impact on the trails and facilities: Today (Saturday): All trails and the chalet are open as usual. We will be doing work on the trails setting the course and…

Trail update: We’ve been getting significant snow all afternoon/evening – 8-10 inches so far – and have been packing the ski trail since 1pm and just came in from grooming and track-setting the entire system. We are still getting snow and the wind has picked up – trails will likely need to be groomed again…
