Current Ski Conditions
Updated: Monday, February 10, 2025
As we start the beginning of a new week, one skier recommended that our report should read a succinct, "Yawn, more fluffy snow, agreeable temps. Stupid good skiing." It's pretty accurate, as we had another inch of new snow last night, and there is a weather service report of imminent heavy snow through mid-morning. However, all good fluff comes to an end when it's the groomer's turn. Our chief groomer is back from a mini vacation skiing in Quebec and is getting ready to do a full round of grooming for the week.
IMPORTANT NOTE: We are hosting our first high school ski race this Wednesday on a course that coincides with the dog loop. To avoid any unfortunate mishaps, we are closing the trails to dogs on Wednesday so that we can prepare the course and hold the race without incident. Thank you for your cooperation!
Dave Brautigam, President
CHNSA
Dog Policy:
A reminder that DOGS are welcome only with canine membership. Please remember to keep your dogs under control at all times, with pooper scoopers ready for use, and take them only on the dedicated Dog Loop.
And as a reminder, season pass purchases cushion our financial situation when the snow is fickle, and the CHNSA season pass is as good a bargain as you'll find out there. CHNSA is a participant in the VSAA reciprocal pass program that gets you a free day of skiing at other areas when you have a season pass at Camel's Hump Nordic. You can purchase your season pass here.
Note: Adults (ages 13-69) can pay the $15 trail fee online! There is also wi-fi at the hut so that you can Scan-Pay-Ski by scanning the QR code at the Kiosk with your smartphone. We accept both Paypal and Venmo!
You'll receive timely conditions updates and be able to join in the online discussions with other skiers.

Please consider a Season Pass to support the all-volunteer efforts at CHNSA.
We're hoping to sign up as many season-members as possible. CHNSA really depends on your support. If you'd like to sign up, please visit our Membership Info page for details. We're also looking for volunteers to help with grooming, hut staffing, and other maintenence activities. If you're interested in helping out, please give Dave Brautigam a call at 802-735-5490.
