Snow farming was done on a connector trail to the blue and green trails on Wednesday evening and it was groomed afterwards. The goal is create snow farmed loop on the blue/green trails as the snow holds best there. Conditions are still quite marginal with hazards like paved and gravel pathways in certain places. Please be cautious and pay attention to what could be under the snow.
Volunteers have made great progress on snow farming this week at Confederation so want to keep momentum going. Fri Nov 27 6:30 to 8pm max 10 people. Sign up here.volunteersignup.org/Y8CBH

All trails were groomed and trackset Sunday morning. The new snow has really improved conditions. Tracks are shallow where there is ice underneath. The most ice was present on the yellow trail so caution is still advised.
