Good morning,
Mostly sunny and high around 44 today with a snow surface almost hard enough to ice skate on as we make our way around some trails this morning.
These warm days and cool nights are making classic track setting extremely difficult to get a reasonable track cut in with snow melting down during the day and freezing into a solid layer overnight.
Planning to run a handful of loops around and may skip some pieces in between but trying to give skiers something fresh to follow around each morning until the sun warms and softens remaining trails.
Again use caution on any trails that are not fresh as they will be very slick until it warms up.
Crust skiing should be pretty firm and can be a whole lot of fun to explore around on you skate skis if you haven't tried it.
Enjoy the sun for now and we'll see you on the trails
Grooming update,
We were able to set classic track on the majority of zone A except for some trails in the immediate vicinity of the Nordic center where coverage is thinner.
Overall it's looking pretty good out there and we will be working to get more trails open soon.
Enjoy
Trail conditions update,
we have compacted all of zone B and zone C trails this morning with pretty good trail coverage throughout most of these zones. Please use caution as there are still some sections with thin coverage and with the new snowfall some hazards may be tough to see so extra caution should be taken especially on hills.
Keep the snow dances going and we will continue to pack trails down throughout this storm.
After further review it was deeper out on the trails than expected this morning... so were out in the cat!
Conditions are still very soft and we are just grooming things down flat as the track setter was just digging a trench behind us when we tried. Plan is to get over all of zone A B and zone D yet today and plan to be back out tomorrow to reset all of those trails again laying track as we go.
Winter is here, Let get our ski on!
For some reason our grooming logs did not update today but the entire property has been groomed besides the blue ridge loop and yurt trail.
Enjoy the trails and sunshine
Trails update,
What we went over came out ok considering but wanted to give a heads up or caution on any trails we have not been on as they are quite icy and lots of small debris in places so use caution as you venture out today.
Still plenty of safe skiing loops we went over this morning and would recommend getting out earlier than later as the snow is going to warm up substantially throughout the day.
Enjoy
Trail status update.
It is snowing! Trails will be covered to some extent in new snow as it continues to come down throughout the day with increasing wind later on.
Yes we did groom even though it may not look like it. Drifting was pretty intense throughout majority of zone A and exposed areas of zone B but we got through and knocked things down so it should be a snowy but enjoyable day out on the trails.
Enjoy
