Let it snow, let it snow, let it… Hey! Where’d it go?

Blog, Uncategorized
Did you get out and enjoy our first shot of winter? Between last Friday’s dusting and Monday’s dollop we were served up enough snow for groomers Bill and Dan to work their magic on the trails Tuesday. It was thin in spots and sticky in others (meaning, both the snow’s clump factor and the twigs poking up from below) but all trails were skiable Tuesday. The operative word being “were.” The forecast has foiled this shot of skiing from being the official kickoff to consistent winter conditions. But don’t despair! There are flakes in the longer-term forecast. And we’ve got an event planned to ease the wait: Backcountry Film Festival Join us tonight for a ski season kickoff party with a screening of the 2015-16 Backcountry Film Festival! We hosted…

Dogs on the trails

Blog, Uncategorized
TTA users: Tsalteshi Trails continues to experience increased use, and while it's great to see more people out enjoying outdoor fitness and recreation, more people on the trails can mean more potential for conflicts. Gone are the days of expecting to head out and not see another car in the lot or person in the woods. For the trails to be enjoyable to all, all users need to demonstrate courtesy, responsibility and a sense of safety for ourselves and others. For those recreating with their four-legged friends, please be mindful of your dog's behavior while using Tsalteshi Trails. Tsalteshi has a "leash or voice control" policy when it comes to dogs on the trail system in the spring, summer and fall (dogs are not allowed on the trails during winter).…
