Carl Wylie Trail Opens

January 06, 2010

 

The Carl Wylie Trail has been recently added to the Sovereign Lake Nordic system.

This one-way, 2.8 km trail provides an easy return route from the Black Prince cabin and the bottom of the Mystery hill, to Sovereign. The timber has been cleared and a narrow temporary surface has been constructed and tracked for classic only. The trail gently climbs and descends while meandering along the contour giving occasional glimpses of the Okanagan Valley. Currently there are a few steeper pitches near the start of the trail that will challenge some skiers. Final construction in the summer of 2010 will create a full width surface suitable for skating and classic by all levels of skiers.

 

This trail will be part of the 2011 Masters World Cup Race Courses and is an important addition to the Sovereign Lake Nordic system.
