Trails Open A gorgeous frosty start to the day. We haven’t seen many frost covered tree days this season so this morning very much welcomed. Trails are in great shape with tons of snow in the woods still. We had no rain or melting over the weekend. A dusting of light snow that covered the bottom of the tracks and made for nice skiing on Sunday. Temps look great this week for continued excellent March skiing. A few crusty spots here and there with the sun having its way on the south facing areas. Even with cooler temps, conditions can change and use a little extra caution skiing the end of season.
We are closed for the season for lodging/ski packages but the trails will remain open for day skiing until a projected date of April 15th, weather and snow conditions permitting.
Grooming Report Touch up grooming planned today and on through the week. Overall the trails are in great shape.
Nature Notes: Wildlife has been active the last few weeks. We have been seeing porcupines along the snowshoe trail and Roy’s Run. We have also seen hawks, owls near JibFly and North Star, fox, deer of course, pileated woodpeckers and tons of tracks. Eagle sighted this week near Twin Lakes return at eagle view.
