The map has been completely redone this winter to the most recent SkiO standard. The snowstorm yesterday has freshened up the trail network nicely and the conditions are great. The registration area has an open patio area with some picnic tables, fire pits, and an outhouse. The NCC bistro might even be open for us to have some hot food and beverages for purchase.
Courses have controls on both sides of the Sir John A Macdonald parkway and Island Park Drive. You are only allowed to cross these roads via the tunnels at Champlain Woods, Champlain Bridge, and Westboro Beach. Do not cross these roads anywhere else! As always please be aware of your surroundings while on course. There are dogs, children, groomers, and various modes of transportation who share the trail with you. When on small trails please move to the side to pass others. Please take care not ruin the classic ski tracks.
Hope to see you out!
