Morice Mountain Nordic Ski Club

About Us

The Morice Mountain Nordic Ski Club was incorporated as  a Society in 1987.   The club manages ski trails in the Silverthorne Lake recreation site 8km south of Houston on Buck Flats Road under a management agreement with the BC Ministry of Tourism, Culture and the Arts.

The trail system has varied terrain with easy, moderate and difficult trails.   The club manages approximately 26km of trails containing a 2km dog compatible trail loop that covers easy and moderate trails, a 2km length of lit trails for night skiing, a ski playground and adventure trail system for the kids, and a cabin at the 1300m elevation on the east slope of Morice Mountain accessed via  a 7.5km trail from our trail system.

The majority of our trails are groomed by a Bombardier 400 Plus to a minimum width of 17ft with two outside set tracks and one interior skating lane.   All trails are two way traffic.  

If you don’t have skis, come and use our ski rental service.   The Club has a supply of skis, boots, and poles to fit small kids to the largest adults.   The cost is $2 per item if not an MMNSC member.   Click the following link to see if we have your size. Ski Library

A Big Thank You!

 

The 2009 trail brushing was funded by Houston Forest Products.   Without their generous support we would be using our clippers a lot more this coming season.
