The inner trails were groomed this morning. They are Woodland Bell, Carl Wylie, Passmore, 1/2 Sovereign  and Sovereign, Revenge, Montezuma, White Elephant, Maid of Vernon, Black Prince, Silver Queen .  The remainder are being groomed now.

Remember that Gold Mtn is accessed from the park sign at the far end of the 3rd parking lot.

All snowshoe and backcountry trails are open.

Please park at a 45-degree angle and close to the vehicle beside you. It makes it a lot easier to get out of your parking spot when there is a centre row of vehicles. 

Come on up and enjoy winter at it’s best!
