Fresh snow overnight  and slightly warmer temperatures meant that the entire Central Gunflint Trail ski system could be groomed again this morning.  The system was definitely ready for fresh tracks and new corduroy, after fairly hard use and subzero temperature during the past few days.  We are expecting a great deal of snow again on Saturday.

A note to day skiers in the area or coming from other resorts without snow:

Due to a Saturday afternoon wedding that is now being held indoors, our Main Lodge at Bearskin will be closed to day skiers on Saturday, January 3, from 1:30-5 PM.  If you are planning to ski on the Central Gunflint Trail ski system on Saturday afternoon, please go just a little farther up the Gunflint Trail and go to Golden Eagle Lodge.  Same trails, different lodge.  We will be selling ski trail passes all day, but there will be no option to hang out in the lodge on Saturday afternoon. This is a one time occurrence that will not affect skiers on Friday or Sunday, just Saturday afternoon.

Thanks for helping to make Allison and Bobby’s wedding a calmer, quieter experience.  Nobody wants a bunch of strangers in lycra and ski boots gawking at their wedding vows  🙂
