An early winter storm has prompted Silver Star Mountain Resort to open its Nordic trails a week earlier than expected. Glenn Bond, Nordic manager at the resort, called the snow storm great news for the Canadian National Ski Team, who are waiting for the resort to open. "This will give them a headstart on their pre-Olympic training at Silver Star," says Bond. "This is one of our earliest openings to date." The resort received 30 cm of snow Monday morning and the long range forecast calls for more snowy conditions. Bond said the Nordic grooming crew is preparing the bulk of the lower trails, meaning more than 25 km of groomed tracks will be open.
Bond says tickets for opening weekend would be discounted to $15. The trails will open Saturday at 8:30 a.m. and run until 3:30 p.m.
