Cleaning up everything for tomorrow. A beautiful evening out. Note the proximity to Hurdman Station - it’s so easy to access the trail by public transportation! #rideauwintertrail #trailbyrail #ottawawinter

Excellent conditions reported on the RWT this morning.

Great to see all this snow, but the amount poses some challenges to our volunteer team. We’ve rolled the trail twice today and again tonight. We think we’ll be able to set classic tracks between Donald St. and Bank St. early tomorrow but we shall see what the wind does tonight.

Morning track setting from Donald St. to Bank St. completed. ✅ Happy Family Day!

Snow is firming up nicely this morning but drifting is going to be an issue. Thanks so much to our team for their work over the weekend. We have a great base for our Loppet on Sunday.

Sunday morning at 10 am. Join us for this community ski (2 km and 11 km loops, both non-competitive), followed by cookies and hot chocolate. For more info and/or to register: zone4.ca/register.asp?i… 📷 from our 2024 Loppet

The stickers for our Loppet participants have arrived!

After cutting down many large snowdrifts this afternoon, our team was out tonight cleaning everything up and setting fresh classic tracks. Conditions should be good tomorrow, and will continue to improve this week as we get ready for Sunday’s Loppet.

Enjoy the trails! 🙌🎿 #wintercapital

It was a dream to groom tonight and will be a dream to use tomorrow!

Report from the RWT this morning: conditions are awesome. Thanks to our team for grooming last night so that the trail would be in great shape today.

Our volunteers are out this evening getting the trail ready for the weekend. 🙌❄️

Our GoFundMe is so close to raising $11K for our trail this season. Wow! Thanks to all who have donated to support our operations and our goal to purchase new equipment. Any donations made to our volunteer run trail are greatly appreciated. gofundme.com/f/grooming-of-…

That’s a wrap on the 2024-25 season. A massive thank you to our supporters for helping make our trail possible. 🙏
