Welcome to the Nordic Pulse Community!

Nakkertrak groomed. We pushed out some snow to maintain the loops through the stadium. Tracksetting is good overall but shallow in a few spots. Skate lane conditions are great. 

Conditions can be marginal even on maintained trails. Promenade Champlain has been maintained between Mica and Mont King parkway and promenade Gatineau has been maintained between P9 and Pink Lake lookout.

Soft conditions made grooming unfavorable. Trails very skiable, equipment simply to heavy.

At the present time Capitano and Goldstick are considered not skiable. Some parts of lower Goldbar are considered barely skiable. Parts of Two-way Lake and Treeline are fair to poor. 50th St. is considered skiable and would be fair to good when the temperatures are abo...

Trails are groomed

All trails groomed the last couple days. Good snow and base. Golf course may get blown in with todays winds.

Thanks for another great season!  

Current trail conditions:  lots of skiers out!  And I think I know why because the sun is brilliant, we still have snow and everyone is looking at the weather forecast.  Get it in now because it is likely gone next week. 

Happy weekend!! -9 and very lightly snowing.  The crew groomed the local greens and the sidewinder ambush loop. Last official day for the season! A good day to get that last fix for the year! No rentals, lodge open 9-4! Chels and Ka...

Well, all good things eventually come to an end... This season was amazing! Thanks to everyone who donated money to the BWT, the volunteers can keep bringing this incredible community-led multi-use trail system to you all.

Crew was on the trails today packing the recent snow. No tracks set at this time as sticks and leaves were coming to the surface. Still need a little more snow in the treed areas.

Went for a ski at 10:30 today and the conditions were still quite good. Some south facing parts of the trail had seen some melting, the rest still had fresh snow. Tracks good for classic and skating. 

St Paul golf course has been tracked and groomed on the front and back nine. Ski conditions are fair to excellent depending on which trails you ski. The Tin Cup and Woodland loop are excellent condition. Jamie's long drive is in fair condition with the odd bare spots. The Jack ra...

As of February 28 2025, we will not be grooming until there is another significant snow fall.

All tracked and groomed this morning. Tracks look great. First 200m of park road not good, take the trail just to left of road. Field trek has  a few short poor spots in it. Have a great ski.

The OWWT East/West from Moodie Drive west and north, to Rifle Road, including the Treatment Loop and the  Christmas Tree Loop, is fully renovated, groomed and trackset for classic and skate skiing as well as other winter activities. Enjoy!

Roller packed the following trails. This procedure packs and levels the recent snow onto the rather variable and often icy base which is too hard for the Ginzu and too shallow for the Pisten Bully.  The result is a fair skate surface. Katimivik to Four Corners, Bia...

CLOSED for the season.See you next year :)

Trails conditions are too variable depending on temperature. Ski at your own risk.  Thank you for a great season, see your next year. 

If you pick the right routes it was reasonable, once you get past the initial ice packed entry. #3 and all of #4 were still in good enough condition to be worthwhile. Lots of debris showing and ground starting to peek through in a few places. I would be surprised if it lives a...

After today's snow conditions have improved. Carpeted twice from Lamouruex to Lac Lundy. 

Trails are now closed for the season. Thanks to everyone for your support of our club.

Ski trails are closed for the season. You can still bike and hike on the trails this week. All trails will close on Sunday, March 30 to allow time to dry out for spring activities!

Groomed today between 3 and 5 pm. All skate trails groomed.  Classic set on Main Road, Hardwood, Fallows, Hoggs Bay and Ash Hill. 

Conditions are poor on our last remaining loop (Smeltzer) so all trails at the Broadmoor are now officially closed till we get a significant amount of snow.  We still have enough base to reopen, but we would need a large amount to justify opening this late in the season. ...

Welcome to the Nordic Pulse Community! This is where written summary and reports can be read. They provide context to your map and trail report list. 

All trails have been snow machine packed several times over the last two days. Started grooming late yesterday and this morning . Heavy snow and drifting snow made for very soft conditions today. Best for snowshoes as trails will need several more grooms to return to perfectio...

Ed's inn. Skied the trail very good considering the wind. Just blown over in a few areas.

7 ft skate lane groomed lightly.   Super solid base will soften a touch throughout the day
