Ski Hill Trails John 5:45-6:45am Skate

Fantastic ski!  Great snow- fast and stable, grooming was excellent.  Slight debris on trail but not a problem.  Also, the snowmaking machine was on!

They didn’t groom last night so the ski reflected that.  Still not bad.  Fast ski and the surface wasn’t even but didn’t really have a freeze/thaw yesterday so snow was decent.

Good ski overall but the weather conditions are making it hard in the snow.  About 90%of the trail is excellent corduroy and the rest is kind of a hard platform that the tiller didn’t really groom.  And the section on the return back to the lodge didn’t get groomed, guessing because of thin snow.  Still, a nice ski considering the conditions we’ve had.

Good ski this morning-snow was a little harder, litttle more debris in the trail, and the grooming was good.  Can tell that some fresh snow would be helpful, especially with these colder temps as this snow is so recycled.  But still a really fun ski!

Consistent with the week we’ve had, today was a great ski.  Fast and stable, excellent grooming.  Some deer were playing in the tracks around the boneyard and left some deep tracks which was interesting to investigate what had happened.

Another great ski!  Temps were a little warmer than yesterday but still well below freezing- the snow was a little more granular this morning so slightly slower but still fast and super stable skiing.  A little more debris on the trail and the grooming was good.  No side loops groomed and it will stay that way till we get some snow.
