1.Winston’s Way

A beautiful intermediate adventure trail, which meanders from Snowberry shelter, out to the southernmost extremities of our tenured zone, then re-joins right above Glenmerry Shelter.

Accessibility: Intermediate/ beginner (Blue)

Distance: 4.5kms

2. Mountain Ridge Bypass

A very exciting, rolling trail which gradually climbs to Mt. Ridge trail from Snowberry trail. This trail is a bypass to the old 28% grade on the Seal Creek access, which was perhaps a little extreme for most skiers.

Accessibility: Intermediate (Blue)

Distance: 1km

3. Viking’s Pass

The epic pass you’ve been waiting for, connecting the eastern side of our trail network to the West, from Mountain Ridge trail to Glenmerry shelter.

Be aware, this trail traverses some of our most mountainous terrain, with very exciting, winding hills, lots of elevation loss and gain and unbeatable winter views. Deep, slopy snow lines will be within reach just off the trailside. Adventurers, advanced, and back-country skiers, this one’s for you!

Accessibility: Advanced (Black)

Distance: 3.5km

4. Forest Path Trail (previous Rossland-Paulson east)

This extension connects Norwegian trail to Gloryview trail through an overhead canopy of cedars and hemlocks, including some old-growth beauties!

Accessibility: Intermediate/ beginner (Blue)

Distance: 1km
