1 PROPOSED Trail Parameters (Sept. 2008) Trail Parameters provide guidance for the assessment, survey and design, construction, reconstruction and maintenance of trails, based on the Trail Class and ed Use identified for the trail. Exceptions and variances to these parameters can occur, however, when site-specific circumstances demand such exceptions. ed Use SKATE SKIING (CROSS-COUNTRY SKI) Groomed Width* One Lane Trail Class 1 Trail Class 2 Trail Class 3* Trail Class 4* Trail Class 5* N/A (Not designed for skate skiing use too narrow) N/A (Not designed for skate skiing use too narrow) N/A (Not designed for skate skiing use too narrow) 8-12 minimum Typically not appropriate for two-way use. Recommend 8 10 wide (by at least 50 long) passing areas in steeper sections or wider trails to accommodate twoway use. Grooming & Smooth compaction using implements designed for creating skate lanes. Smooth, well-groomed, using ski-specific equipment to provide a quality surface. Grade** [Caused by use, lack of grooming, melt, or surface/subsurface protrusions] Generally smooth surface, but small imperfections of subsurface may be acceptable. <10% 6-8% 20% 15% should be smooth and consistent with no obstacles. <5% of trail <5% of trail overall; up to 8% for short stretches (50 maximum.) Cross-Slope <5% overall <5% overall Maximum [For up to 50 ] 12% Minimum cross-slope (crowned or one side) 2% to promote drainage 8% Minimum cross-slope (crowned or to one side) should be 2% to promote drainage.
2 ed Use SKATE SKIING (CROSS-COUNTRY SKI) Width Trail Class 1 Trail Class 2 Trail Class 3* Trail Class 4* Trail Class 5* Minimum of 1 outside of each groomed edge. Width: Minimum 2 outside of groomed edge. Recommend more aggressive clearing (up to 5 ) to reduce seasonal maintenance. Height [Above normal max. snow level] Radius [Use Climbing versus Switchbacks for Ski trails whenever possible] Minimum of 8 from top of anticipated snowpack or height of grooming equipment (whichever is greater) 15-20, or the minimum necessary to equipment. Height: At least 10 from top of anticipated snowpack, or height of grooming equipment (whichever is greater.) At least 25, or the minimum necessary to equipment. * Trail Classes 3, 4 and 5 may potentially provide accessible passage. If assessing or designing trails for accessibility, refer to current Agency trail accessibility guidance. ** Grade variances should be based upon factors such as common snow type, use levels, tightness of turns, and other factors contributing to surface stability and erosion potential. *** Maximum pitch density refers to the percentage of the trail that is within 5% (+/-) of the imum Grade.
