TRAIL MAINTENANCE 

Even if you don't ski but love to cut some mean brush or show off your chainsaw skills, please contact the club's Trails Coordinator to volunteer for trail maintenance!

​

​Year-round effort is needed to maintain the ski trails. While some improvements are made by contracted workers, most are completed by dedicated volunteers. Leading up to winter, the Ministry of Parks, Culture and Sport and Ski Club volunteers clear fallen trees, mow down the overgrown brush and rake away debris impacting the trail system. Once the snow arrives, grooming gets completed by both Ski Club Volunteers and Parks. Volunteers take on the task of grooming the Saskaloppet trail while Parks groom Nut Point and Don Allen trails; notably, at times, Parks also assists with the Saskaloppet trail.

Treaty Land Acknowledgement

​

“The La Ronge Nordic Ski Club acknowledges that the ski trails are on Treaty 6 Territory and the Homeland of the Woodland Cree. We pay our respect to the First Nations ancestors of this land and reaffirm our relationship with one another as we continue on the path of reconciliation together.”
