Description:
This trail is actually a snow-paved road. It is flat and usually trackset and is an excellent place for the novice skiers to practice or for expert skiers to train. The snow comes early here and the road requires only 20 to 30 centimeters to be skiable.
There will be two groups of skiers on the trail, moderate and fast. Poul will lead the fast skiers and Lori will lead the moderate skiers.
