There has been no new snow at West Bragg Creek for over two weeks. Alternating warm, melting conditions and periods of cold weather continue to change the trail conditions. Single track trails range from very hard packed snow, to ice in shaded and sheltered areas, to dry dirt on sun and wind exposed sites, especially on the ridge tops. Ski trails generally have consistent snow coverage, but are very hard packed and icy, with some early season hazards like rocks and twigs showing through. XC skiing is not recommended until we get more snow. Conditions are not good for snowshoeing. Studded tires are essential for fat-biking. Biking conditions are good, expect to encounter sections of glare ice and dry dirt. Traction devices are highly recommended for hiking or trail running.
