We are now officially closed for the 2018-2019 season. The chalet will no longer be open and rentals are no longer available. Trails remain open for as long as conditions allow but are use at your own risk.
Thanks for another great season! See you next winter!
Sunday May 5th from 4pm-6pm in the Ken Bahnuk Lounge
Everyone is welcome to attend!
Due to the anticipated rains on March 14&15 the trails at Laurentian Nordic will be closed both days. With cooling temperatures expected on Friday night and into the weekend we will assess the snow conditions and groom the trails when we are able to. Please watch for updates on trail conditions. We appreciate your cooperation in staying off the trails while they are soft. Lots of spring skiing ahead with the base we have!

Notice of Temporary Ski Trail Closure for Construction Activity
Please note that one of the cross-country ski trails located behind the Stadium Facility will be closed due to construction activity (see attached map for exact location).
It is currently anticipated that the ski trail will be closed from Monday, November 12 to Friday, December 14, 2018. Inclement weather may affect this schedule.
We request that everyone respect and obey all posted construction signage as well as directions from the workers on the affected trail.
We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you in advance for your cooperation. For any questions please contact maintenance@laurentian.ca or extension 1500.
The project scope entails the installation of new high-efficiency (LED) lighting along the trail, as identified in the attached pdf (see photo below).
Construction activity may begin as soon as next week, and will involve machinery and workers present in the marked trail.
As a result, the affected trail will be closed for the duration of the project.
A site visit with the contractor has been scheduled, and further details with respect to project schedule will be discussed and clarified.
A campus-wide email message is being prepared in both languages and will be circulated in the near future.
In the meantime, please share this preliminary information with your School Board and City contacts so that they are aware of the trail closure.
If I have missed anyone in the distribution list, please share with them also.”
Greetings Sudbury Skiers!

P.S. Step two would be to make sure you have all your equipment figured out. Don’t forget about the Ski Swap and Open House this coming weekend at Walden Cross Country Fitness Club. More info here: http://waldenxc.ca/ski-swap-open-house/
