This trail has not been maintained. There are trees across it and weeds and and small trees are taking over. We lost the trail and had to bushwack back to the main trail. Please maintain the trail, mark it as unmaintained or take the sign down. It's okay if it isn't groomed but it should be a discernible trail

We apologize for any confusion on that trail. According to our maintenance director, “Earlier this fall the Cherry Tree Trail was cleared. Since then it is possible with all the wind we have had more trees have fallen. There has not been enough snow yet this season to open the Cherry Tree. If and when we get more we will clear and groom the trail.”.
I’m told today that a crew is working on improving conditions on that trail, clearing and with better markings.

To all the BREIA staff who make it happen, I just passed sixty days of cross skiing this season on the BREIA trails and find myself struggling to find words appropriate to express the level of gratitude for the opportunity your collective work provides. I sincerely hope you all take pride in the quality of grooming maintained throughout this season and those past. Because of your work the trails provide a respite from the noise of every day life and gives those who ski them the opportunity to refresh our bodies and cleanse our minds. We who live in the area and make use of your trails are so fortunate to have cross countryt rails and you at our doorstep.
Thank you so very much, Tony Rabasca

Thanks for your comments.
With regard to trails’ distance, BREIA has never broken those distances out by trail segments for public consumption. There is no particular reason why. Since there have been several inquiries this winter about the distances, we would like to get some new signs made for next winter that list some trail distances.
