Fantastic start to the week with beautiful skiing. Sunshine out in full force on Tuesday with light winds, mid teens and no wind after a windy day on Monday with lingering snowfall. We have been grooming the entire trail system daily, grooming in the 7″ of fresh snow over the weekend and will continue to groom the trails until Presidents weekend and as needed over the weekend. Trails still a bit soft but setting up with repeated grooming and cold temps at night. Excellent skiing conditions on a compacted base of 7-12″. Snow depth in the woods 16-36″.
Kris and Kyia Anderson are neither Finnish or are they loggers but they were occupants of the Finnish Log cabin this past weekend enjoying lots of time on the trails in winter wonderland conditions.
A postcard picture weekend on the trails. Winter wonderland conditions. Fresh snow on Friday groomed in on all the trails Saturday morning. Slightly cooler temps making for nice glide and easier waxing. Light snow again Sunday morning with grooming on most of the trail system which was covered by snow again Sunday evening after 5-6″ of fresh fluffy snow as of 9pm. We will be grooming the new snow Monday and plan on grooming all week to have nice skiing for the Midweek skiers into Presidents weekend. Excellent skiing conditions on a compacted base of 7-12″ and snow depth 18-30″ after 10″ of fresh snow the past week and more snow forecasted tonight and Monday. Awesome!
1-2″ of fresh snow the past 24 hours. Light winds and 31 degrees for high on Friday. Excellent skiing conditions. Compacted base on the trail is 6-11″ and snow depth in the woods is 15-26″. We groomed the entire trail system today except for Roy’s Run which has been recently groomed with fresh snow on top but skier packed. The woods are still flocked with some of the snow from the storm a few weeks ago. Chance of more snow tonight and on through Monday. We plan on grooming the entire trail system Saturday morning if more than 1″ of new snow. Conditions couldn’t be much better and skiing is fantastic. All the trails are tracked for classic except for Skaters Waltz and Skaters Extension which are groomed for skating. There are still a few low hanging branches and face slappers here and there but we are trying to clear the trails the best we can and overall the skiing is ideal, albeit a bit soft with the fresh snow, warmer temps and high humidity.
