Larose Forest trail reports
Note from Nick: Great job on the clean up!! All the western trails are groomed. Conditions are good but a bit soft in places. Watch out for low branches. Enjoy everyone – Thanks so much to Kent, Jasmine, Tyson and Sebastien for all their awesome work!!! Thanks also to those…
From Nick yesterday: Well sorry to say this but the trails are a mess. There are branches and bent over trees all over the forest. You will need some help for your trails because there is no way we will be done on our ski trails before the week end.…
Was out this morning around 10:30am. The parking lot has been plowed. The trails are not groomed, but the trails consist of a nice solid base the about 2 inches of new fluffy snow, which made the run very enjoyable. We stuck to the west side trails. The main concession (11…
I just returned from Larose. Everything was plowed when we got there at 10 am. The Western trails and the parking bypass were groomed, I would say yesterday at the end of the storm, as there was only about 1-3 cm of fresh powder over a hard packed base. Great…
Nick’s report: All the trails are groomed! We might come in on the 27th depending on the snow or Steve will be here on the 28-29 and half a day on the 30th. Merry x mas!! Several of us enjoyed the trails this afternoon. Moose and Gun Club are still a…

Despite the need to cancel the event because of freezing rain later than forecast, there were many teams who braved the drive up at the forest today. The trail is as yet ungroomed, but with only 5-10 cm of extra snow on top of the grooming from Friday it was…
Nick’s report: Eastern trails, parking bypass and 10-11 are groomed wide. So is 11th but it has a bit of gravel in some places. I don t recommend skijoring on it just yet. All of the western trails have a single pass in the middle. I will be able to get…
The logger is done. They are removing the last of the logs from north of the parking area today. All trails are able to be groomed, except 4th Trail between the ditches and 11th concession (which has big stumps). Forestry is moving the rest of the concrete blocks throughout the forest…
Please note that there will be logging activities starting as early as September this fall and continuing through to December around the P1 parking area. This will affect 1st, 2nd (Big Pine), 3rd and 4th trails, and possibly south side JGL. Please do not use these trails during fall…
