4 of the groomers are out , trails should be great skiing at 10 am.

we had a full groom team out this afternoon grooming the new snow. We received about 5 inches of heavy dense snow which is perfect for filling in over the old firm base. Many passes to keep up with the storm. The crew went home to dry up and rest up for the 6 am shift in the am Wednesday. I am heading out for one last run on the main trails. Looks like the cold temps later this week will be great for freezing down the south; Highlands and Windy Ridge. I pulled the 9 foot groomer through there today and it is looking very good except the entrance by Sulon needs to freeze harder and a few miscellaneous wet areas

Wully Bully, Pig Heart and Crasher were out grooming skate lanes this morning for 3 hours; The main trails are still grooming up well with texture. Yes there are some icy spots in the flat, low areas, but they are flat and frozen. We have a 10 km loop that is skiing quite well with Pisten bully set tracks. The classic only trails are pretty icy and not recommended until we get more snow.

After coffee break we headed out to the Highlands and Windy Ridge with 3 ginzu groomers and smoothed out the trail. It needs more cold temps and snow to open but it is close.

looks like 5-12 inches forcast starting at 10 am tommorow, we have a full crew ready to groom mid morning.

grooming in the Highlands today. We hope to have them open Friday

the skiing today was reported as better than Friday , but faster than Saturday w the 45-47 degree temps. The Pisten bully improved conditions on most of the trails it treaded on but where I lifted the tiller to avoid dirt it was a bit chunky. Classic skiers appreciated the fresh tracks on the 10 km loop. Groomers are sleeping in tomorrow and will start grooming at 7 am, we are going to clip brush and put up new maps so it will be slow going. No plans to reset tracks until Tuesday or Wednesday when the forecast snow arrives. We will plan to start grooming silos and the highlands tomorrow, they have been packed. They will be open for skiing when we post they are open. I am hoping for later this week.

the trails got groomed up again this morning, we used thePisten Bully on about 10 km and powertilled and reset tracks. We used the light equipment on another 15 km and renovated skates lanes. We have been grooming daily spending 9-10 man hours every morning before opening. For the best skiing experience u can check in the ticket booth or front desk to find out what’s groomed
