It's a beautiful morning at the Canmore Nordic Centre and we are expecting a busy day. Please note the following trail conditions for mountain biking. The lower trails are in very good condition and we have opened most areas for trail users. Please be mindful of snow sections on some upper trails in shady areas including EKG, Get In/Get Out, Matching Jerseys and parts of the roller ski loop including Banff Trail. At this point in time we are asking users to avoid Meadowview to allow it to continue to dry out.
Have a fantastic day out there, carry bear spray and respect all users of the trails!
Top Gun and the Bike Park are now open for public use.
