Still Going! 3/5/2024

The last couple of weeks have not been kind to our snow conditions, but with some effort from the groomers, it’s still going. Believe it or not, there’s still a continuously snow-covered trail from start to finish, but maybe only for one or two more days. The front hill has a couple of very narrow spots and will need to be portaged after this heat spell. But, it’s supposed to snow starting Thursday.

I got out tonight with the grooming stuff and set the tiller down deep to smooth out all the funky meltdown snow. It was mostly successful, but not everything smoothed out perfectly. It really needs to snow to be fully resuscitated. Fingers crossed.

For now, it’s really only groomed for skate, but classic skiing will be ok without the track. Also, I spent some time clearing more tree debris and the rest of that tree that came down out in the meadow.

Be careful if you do go ski, and bring your rock skis. There’s now a lot of tree trash and thin spots, but we’re still skiing.

The meadow trail loop really got a lot of attention so it’s back to looking pretty good. Otherwise it’s really a spring skiing mixed bag of conditions.

We’ll keep things going after this next forecasted storm, but unless the there’s another one to save us, next week might be the finale for this season. Stay tuned and get in some skiing before we pull the plug…
