Skiing safely during lockdown

January 2, 2021

We are blessed to have had XC trails declared an essential service during the current lockdown. We all need to get outside and get moving to stay mentally and physically healthy during this time. Help us stay open by obseverving a few basic protocols when visiting one of our 3 trail systems.

  • Stay distanced. It’s easy to do on skis. Stay at least 2 pole lengths apart, especially when you are breathing hard.
  • Don’t gather. Please don’t ski in large groups, or stop on the trails for a visit or a picnic.
  • Ski, then go home. We love to see you out on the trails, but the parking lots and trails are crowded. Get your ski in, then head home to free up space for other folks.

Observe these few simple protocols and we can ski right through the lockdown. If you have questions or concerns about skiing during the lockdown do not hesitate to contact us at info@skihaliburton.com

Annual Ski Swap and AGM

November 4, 2019

Kick off the 2019/2020 season at the annual Ski Swap/AGM

Nov 16

Fleming College

9 AM (start of ski swap)-11 AM

This is a great time to meet other skiers, get a good deal on some used equipment, and have input into the direction of the HHNTA.

The ski swap is an informal affair; if you have used equipment that you would like to sell or give away, bring it to Fleming before 9 and set it up in the room provided. All sales are between individuals. HHNTA does not accept payment on your behalf

Skiing at Wanakita: please read carefully

January 15, 2019

For immediate attention: Skiing at YMCA Camp Wanakita

The good folks at Wanakita continue to make their trails available for use by our members. They charge us nothing for this and derive no financial benefit: it is the definition of a generous act.

Please use the site with that generosity in mind. A few very clear rules about using the Wanakita site:
  • Your HHNTA pass gives you access to the ski trails only. No other access to the site is implied or given.
  • Park in the front lot, close to the office, obeying all parking signs. DO NOT attempt to drive further into the site.
  • Check-in at the office. Use the Wanakita sign-in system. If staff are present, double check with them that your car is parked appropriately
  • Obey all posted signs relative to skiing
  • DO NOT enter any buildings while you are on site.
  • Obey any instructions that a staff member gives you.
Wanakita is private property, with very strict guidelines as to who may interact with students on their site. Please respect the fact that we are being given access to their ski trails. Any abuse of that access could result in loss of access by all HHNTA members: don’t be that person.

Cross Country Canada wants your input.

December 12, 2018

CCC is in the midst of rebranding, and wants to hear from their stakeholders. If you are a member of HHNTA, then that means you. Every year, a portion of your membership fees goes to support CCC.

”

Today, we need your participation as we embark on the most important part of our revitalization – brand identity. Our brand is more than our logo. It identifies who we are as a community and communicates a common vision for the future. Our brand must align with our strategy and core values. It will force us to make decisions on where to focus.”

2018/2019 Registration is open

November 18, 2018

The ski season is off to an early start. We have a few Kms of trail groomed in Glebe park, with more on the way soon .  Memberships and registration for all of our Youth Programs is now open. Please register online. You can either pay online, or by cash/cheque.

2018/2019 Online Registration

Seeking volunteers

We are always looking for volunteers to keep trails in good shape, and to help with club programs. Volunteer opportunities include:

  • Trail prep and maintenance: from heavy (grooming, chainsawing) to light (clippping brush, picking up sticks)
  • Youth Programs. You don’t have to be a ski-coach to help young folks fall in love with skiing. We can always use more hands on a busy Saturday afternoon
  • Club activities. Moonlight skis, weekly ski groups, scavenger hunts……there are lots of possibilities. We just need keen folks to help make them happen.

If you are interested in any of these opportunities, or have ideas for other activities that would make the Highlands a better place to ski, contact us at info@skihaliburton.com

Cancelled: Pizza day at Mooseoods

March 10, 2017

Sorry folks, but it’s a bit chilly for hanging out and cooking pizza. Why not pick up a pizza from our new neighbours, La Luna Del Nordo  (formerly known as Maple Moon Winery): just down the road from Moosewoods. Stay warm!
