Crust is hard this morning

Moose meadow is getting thin. Once there's a breakthrough, grooming there will stop for the season. Likely to be soon. 5K  grooming will continue as temps allow. Both 5K and Moose meadow groomed today. Both turned out nicely for late April.

April 2nd: Mild weather has resulted in the snow base melting rapidly, exposing dirt and pavement frequently. Remaining snow and tracksets will be soft and challenging to ski.
