Introducing the ABR Grooming Team

As we near the transition to the ABR Trails Foundation, we want to assure our ABR Community that the skier experience will remain the high-quality experience that you have come to love at ABR. Eric will remain Chief Groomer and will work with the same, expert personnel and equipment to create and maintain the trails we all know and love.

Let us introduce you to the Grooming Team and the equipment that makes the trail magic happen every day!

We groomed most all the combination trails today, including Ridge Runner. We groomed the skate lanes and widened them as needed. The trails are skiing great. We have been seeing many skiers out skiing 40-45 k in training for the BIRKIE.

we have a groomer crew of 4 early Saturday morning.

I turned 63 today and I had one of the best Birthdays ever! I turned off my alarm last night and slept in till 5:30 am, chatted with the groomer team Snow Cross and Crasher, they groomed most of the combi trails and PB groomed Tammarack 2 track and Ridge Runner with the PB. Ridge Runner is groomed for classic and skate, we will leave it for a while, looking for feedback from the skiers. We had the entire team of 8 groomers come in for a formal Foundation meeting and coffee and a group video and picture on snow. Video coming on Foundation website or social media soon. Then Pizza lunch with the groomer team and Foundation Board members.

Friday we plan to regroom some classic only and do touch up grooming as needed with Pisten Bully 1 or 2.

This is a picture of our dedicated grooming team, they all are planning on working next year for the Foundation. I feel so blessed working with this dedicated crew!
