Skiff of Snow

Well, this weekend is a bit of a take what we can get kind of a deal. I was sure hoping for more than the scant 1/2" of snow that fell overnight, but every last snowflake helps these days. 

I groomed a full skate lane around the Rail Trail and Loop, and it actually looks pretty darn good, given recent weather. I tried out the classic track setter, but the snow is so transformed and firm under the fresh stuff that the it just wasn't really making an impression at all. We'll likely have to wait for a bigger snowfall before we have good classic tracks again.

On Porter's and Jelm, I got two passes done with the packer, in an effort to keep the snow from blowing away. Unfortunately, the wind blown bare spots on those trails are too big to take the groomer over right now, but again, where there is snow it's in good shape. 

It was great to see so many folks out enjoying what we do have, even in the cold. Stay warm and happy skiing!
