Alberta Youth Cross Country Ski Championships: Alberta Youth Cross Country Ski Championships

With the cancellation of numerous events in southern Alberta this winter, there has been lots of inquiry about what snow conditions are like at West Bragg Ski Trails and whether we will be able to host the 2015 AYC in Bragg Creek in 2 weeks - the short answer is YES! If the event had been held this weekend, the competitions would have gone ahead, we are confident that the 2015 AYC will happen!

Here are a bunch of photos taken Sunday, February 22, 2015 at 6pm. As you will see - good snow coverage - very skiable - in fact I skied the whole race trail and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was! Bragg Creek rec'd snow last week - lets hope it stays cold and snowy!

We are planning back up locations - saturday possibilities include Canada Olympic Park or Mt Shark, and sunday possibilities include Canmore Nordic Centre. Be prepared that you may have to drive on the saturday to the venue with your group if we are not at West Bragg.

These are real pictures - not photoshopped - of West Bragg Creek on Sunday Feb 22. Very skiable today! Lets keep our fingers crossed that we can ski at West Bragg at AYC 2015!
