For the 2024/25 season, we anticipate that all our facilities will be open without Covid specific restrictions or procedures. For chalet use we encourage mask use and physical distancing. If provincial Covid requirements change during the season, information on the DRXC web site will be updated, and signs will be posted at the chalet. Check out the Facilities page for more information.
As usual, the trail clearing and trail improvement groups have done a great job getting things ready for the new season.
Silver Spoon Ski (and Snowshoe) Fest
More information will be provided on the Programs page once details have been finalized.
Equipment Rental
A collection of equipment (poles, boots, skis, waxes) is available for seasonal rental on Saturday, November 23 and Sunday afternoon , November 24, 2024 at the Deep River Curling Club (see the Programs page for details).
Do you have someone who will outgrow by Christmas the ski equipment you bought for them at Thanksgiving? Do you have someone who just wants to try out the sport without buying expensive equipment? Then the DRXC ski rental program is for you. We have a large quantity of good quality equipment available for rent at low cost. Not only is this a boon for skiers but revenue from the program goes back to the club to help reduce the costs of our Jackrabbit program.
To connect skiers with equipment, volunteers are needed to work two-hour time slots on Saturday November 23 and Sunday November 24. Call us at 613 584 3033 to volunteer, or email phil.davis603@gmail.com, .
Grooming Information
The grooming and trail maintenance volunteers work hard at keeping the ski tracks in good shape and cleared of fallen trees and branches. Check the groomers’ blog for the latest on trail conditions.
Registration
Registration for general members is open. Jackrabbit registration is included in the club membership form. Visit the Registration page for more information.
Club Facebook Page
The Deep River ski community has a Facebook page that can be used to post pictures, spread the news about trail conditions, meet up with others for a group ski, and so on.
Four Seasons Conservancy
Use of the Silver Spoon trails and the DRXC Chalet on Balmer Bay Road are through cooperation with the Four Seasons Conservancy and other private landowners. For year-round trail access rights you must sign-up as a lifetime Conservancy member (see sidebar). The DRXC encourages all skiers to do this and to enjoy the other trails, other activities and other seasons in this pristine natural setting. Please tread lightly!
