Trail Passes provide consistent funding to the FTA

Trail Passes provide consistent funding to the FTA which is essential for the success and sustainability of our year-round trail network. Trail Passes also allow the FTA to manage land user agreements and ensure land access now and for years to come.

If you ride, run, walk, hike, ski or snowshoe, please support the efforts and costs to build and maintain our incredible trail network by purchasing a 2025 Trail Pass.

To streamline the Trails Pass process and enhance your experience, we’re now offering a new auto-renew membership option. We believe this updated system will simplify your membership renewal and help us better plan and provide for our vibrant trail community.

Thank you for your support.

STOP 🚫 Are you sinking into the trail when wal

STOP 🚫

Are you sinking into the trail when walking or fat biking? If so, STOP 🖐 Here’s why:

When ruts and holes are created, all the money and hours spent grooming are wasted.

These trails are multi-use—let’s keep them that way. If you don’t have the right gear for today’s conditions, please choose another route.

What’s incorrect groomed trail use?
❌ Walking in boots when the snow is too soft
❌ Riding with tire pressure above 1-4 psi in soft conditions
❌ Using the trail when you’re leaving ruts or holes (i.e. sinking more then 1”)

Why does it matter?

Damages the trail and wastes grooming efforts
Creates safety hazards for others
Ruins the trail for everyone
Requires more resources to fix

How can you help?
✔️ Walkers: Use snowshoes or skis. If you’re still leaving holes, stay off the trail.
✔️ Fat bikers: Lower your tire pressure to 1-4 psi. If you’re still leaving ruts, stay off the trail.

We’ve partnered with@gearhub_sports to provide FREE snowshoes for the community to use. Find these snowshoes rotating around trailheads throughout the winter.

We are extremely excited to announce a game changing update to grooming reports in Fernie. The Fernie winter trail network is now LIVE on @nordicpulse!

With Nordic Pulse, our groomers simply enable the in-app GPS tracker while they groom and the app syncs the data every few seconds (or when back in service and can connect to the server).

This means you will be able to see LIVE conditions updates on our website or on the Nordic Pulse app as the trails are groomed.

A huge thank you to @tourismfernie for supporting our incredible network of small, volunteer grooming teams including @fernietrailsalliance, @coalcreekheritagesociety and @fernienordicsociety. Your support allows us to better serve Fernie’s amazing winter trail community!

Head to our website or download the app to start planning your next nordic ski or fat bike ride.

Community Snowshoe Share Program sponsored by @gea

Community Snowshoe Share Program sponsored by @gearhub_sports

You may have seen these around town! These snowshoes are a community donation from Gearhub to protect trail conditions and the hard work of our volunteer groomers. If you’re sinking and leaving holes, the time and money spent grooming is wasted. Instead, use these FREE snowshoes.

Enjoy them, and return them to the designated spot when you’re done. Respect the trails and those who maintain them so we can keep these trails multi-use.

2025 Trails Passes are Live!

2025 Trails Passes are Live!

Join the January State of the Snowpack discussion

Join the January State of the Snowpack discussion at The Central on Tuesday, January 14th, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm.

This month, ACMG Ski Guide Steve Kuijt will share his expert insights on safely navigating the Tunnel Creek ski terrain.

Additionally, the South Rockies Avalanche Canada team will provide a comprehensive update on the evolving snowpack conditions throughout the Elk Valley.

The State of the Snowpack is a free monthly speaker series, led by local avalanche professionals, who share as-local-as-it-gets analysis of what they are seeing in their local snowpacks. Supported by Avalanche Canada and the Elk Valley Ski Touring and Trails Club, this event seeks to answer an important question: How can we keep our backcountry communities safer?

Winter Work Trail Work Parties (aka stomp the trai

Winter Work Trail Work Parties (aka stomp the trails) are starting up for 2025 on January 8th. They will be every Wednesday from 6:30pm - 8:30pm.

What can you expect?

Grab your snowshoes and help pack down the trails, or, if you’re up for an extra workout, take on one of our human-powered grooming machines.

It's the perfect opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, socialize with fellow trail users, and contribute to keeping our trails in top shape! Plus, we’ll provide snacks and drinks to keep you fuelled.

A message from our awesome groomer @birdman_fernie

A message from our awesome groomer @birdman_fernie “Please stay out of phatsonya area.
Even snowshoes were leaving holes today.
Anything that was groomed, looks great. But they need a GOOD freeze. Like -5 or
Colder.
The tracks are much softer up higher where there was more accumulation.
You will leave LARGE ruts guaranteed.
Snowshoe or skis should be fine tomorrow.
Im not sure when i will have time to get back up there
It was a lot of work today with the heavy snow.
I’ll be checking daily with 👀 in the woods. 🫎🦉🦊🦄
If the sign is up.
Please come back at another time.
Go do some errands, last minute shopping or maybe wrap some gifts sipping hot cocoa or a stiff eggnog.
Thank you for you’re patience 🦅👊”

The Elk Valley Streak is Back this January! After

The Elk Valley Streak is Back this January!

After a fantastic 6 years, the Elk Valley Streak is back with a fun, supportive nudge to get more people outside and active.

The 2025 #EVStreak again offers the chance to sign up the entire family, including kids and dogs too, with the goal of raising money for a very worthwhile cause. Over the past 6 years we've collectively raised over $20k, and we look forward to another successful community fundraising adventure for 2025, supporting the Elk Valley Family Society!

HOW TO STREAK: The #EVStreak is simple. Ski (Nordic or Downhill), Snowboard, Walk, Bike, Run, Hike, Skate, Shovel (or whatever you like!) outside, on your own steam, for a minimum of 30 minutes, on 31 consecutive days - with the goal being the entire month of January 2025.

Head to the link in our bio for more information.
