| Itinerary: |
As of this last minute
posting
on Thursdaey, Tawatinaw Valley is reporting plenty
of snow on the ground and groomed track set nordic
skiing (*plus skate skiing). With snow forecast
this weekend it should
be an even nicer Winter Wonderland.
Discover The Valley! Tawatinaw Valley is one of
the best lowland ski areas in Alberta. Only 1 hour
north of Edmonton, next to the historic Landing
Trail, Tawatinaw Valley spreads over 140 acres and
boasts some of the most spectacular views outside
the Rocky Mountains. Well-groomed runs featuring
gullies, ravines, open hills and gentle slopes
provide 20 km of cross-country trails.
See website for more information.
With your $6 trail pass we can also enjoy skiing
down the "ski-out" trail to the lodge for
refreshments and snacks, and then catch the t-bar
lift back up to the extensive cross country trail
system.

| Carpool Cost: | |
The event coordinator(s) will help you to arrange a centralized carpool if you require it, but it's not guaranteed. Please DO NOT pay your driver en route. Passengers will pay the coordinator, and he/she will distribute the money to the carpool drivers. SO PLEASE BRING CASH!!! Approximate vehicle expense for this event is $55.68 (calculated at total Km * $0.29, effective Thursday, November 21, 2024). This is based on $0.09/Km for maintenance, plus current gas price divided by 9. This cost will be multiplied by the number of carpooled cars, and divided by the number of carpool participants.
