The Pisten Bully was out last night and back out this morning with the other groomers. It will take several passes to get this amount of snow firm so we are concentrating on 15 km for the skaters and 45 km for the classic skiers this morning.

Just coming in from the nightly grooming cyle with SKi Rider and Mini Mike. The task tonight was smoothing ruts and roughing up hard pack…like the primer for paint. The trails are looking good. We concentrated on all of the hills tonight and the early AM crew will take care of the finish coat.
Skate lanes were groomed, temp is at 32, no rain , no snow skiing is very good at 9 AM
The snow has stopped and we had a morning off from grooming. The trails are skiing well and we will be touching them up with 3 groomers in the early AM …maybe with a dusting of snow.
The base is holding up well and is still significant
I expect Friday and Saturday to continue to be fine for good skiing, I am wondering what will happen for Sunday. My guess is that the trails will take some wear on Sat and we may get a few thin areas or bare spots. Saturday even if the temps stay above freezing the trails may ice up and we will have to work hard to regroom for Sunday without bringing up dirt in a few areas. I did bring out the Pisten Bully today so we do have some options. We will not close unles the snow melts or becomes un skiable.
