Not quite as warm today as yesterday with temp right around 32. Sun exposed areas getting a bit soft then glazing up later afternoon when clouds moving back in. Tracks and snow holding up well and good to very good and some great reports coming from the skiers. Most of the inner trails groomed last night for fresh groom skiing this morning. No grooming tonight planned but should be a nice MLK day of skiing and slightly cooler temps during the week.
An incredible morning on the trails with the trees frosted heavily, light winds, sunshine and mild temps. Spectacular! Frozen granulated (sugar) snow with frost falling off trees around noon. Silkylike. Most of the trail system was groomed this morning (around 53km) including all the skate trails. The remaining classic trails will be groomed Saturday and Sunday morning and other trails will be re-groomed as needed. Skiing might be softer today as the snow has transformed completely to sugar and high morning dew points. Should set up tonight. With no new snow since Christmas, there are leaves and other forest matter scattered throughout but grooming today cleaned the trails up pretty good.
A beautiful morning on tap with trees frosted heavily with frost, calm winds, clear skies and mid teens for temps. The trails are holding up great despite any new snow since the Christmas storm. Frequent grooming keeping the trails in good shape and skiing is very nice. The only negative a few leaves here and there and other forest matter, thanks to the squirrels and porcupines which add to the nature experience. We are grooming most of the trail system this morning for Martin Luther King weekend skiing.
