Our grooming team continues to maintain and fine-tune what we\u2019ve built. They\u2019re levelling out trails, reinstalling fencing and ribbons, digging out lift tower pads, and tightening up the resort as a whole. In the beginner areas, we\u2019re shaping micro-slopes to keep progression smooth and confidence-building for those just getting started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This stretch of the season is also an important window for ongoing snow groomer training. With solid hours under their belts, our team is continuing to expand their skillsets through winch training, renovation techniques, grooming lift loads and unloads, rolling in trail edges, and pushing snow up from the bottom of runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The efficiencies we\u2019ve put in place over the past two winters are proving themselves again. Conditions have remained strong, we\u2019re preserving our base well as we\u2019re still sitting at roughly a metre of snow depth across the mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the parks, the L-Park cross track opened last weekend, with the start gate being installed this weekend. We\u2019re also anticipating rebuilding the Badlands terrain park soon. Starting Monday, the team will begin building the track for Coors Light Snow Tube Bowling at the bottom of Smart Alec trail, and then we\u2019ll recreate it again in time for March Break\u2019s cardboard box derby. The operations team is always busy with our awesome calendar of events that you can check out here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Behind the scenes, snowmaking maintenance never stops. We\u2019re actively testing and maintaining guns to ensure the system is ready to run at a moment\u2019s notice, or primed to go again next winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/thebarn.bluemountain.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0654-1800x1350.jpg\")
