Winter returns!! A beautiful morning with frosted trees and calm condition. The trails freezing down good last night thanks to temps in the mid teens.
Close to 4″ of fresh snow this week. Just enough snow for the first ski and grooming of the year! We have been grooming on Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, Eira Bikwadinaa hill and a segment of Skaters Waltz the past three days as part of our “early season loop”.
There are a lot of rough and thin spots but with caution, some diehard early season skiing to be had. We will have the groomed trail open for anyone looking for early season skiing. Use extreme caution. Not recommended for beginner or first time skiers.
We completed the clearing of the trail system with Bullhead Lake trail and Bootleg extension being cleared before deer hunting. Overall it has been a great fall for trail work. We try to have the trails as cleared as possible so the frost can set when cold temperatures come and we can groom and open the trails on minimal snow.
November snowfall at 4″. November rainfall total at 2.35″. 2.55″ rainfall in October. Total rainfall in September at .44″. August rainfall at 3.2″. Rainfall the month of July at 5.71″. Total rainfall in June at 7.56″. It was also a very wet month of May with right around 8″ of rain. Since January 1st, we have received almost 29″ of rain.
