Evening
Observation 
Walked out to trail post #19 from Boat Landing on Gegoka Lake. 2 to 3 inches of snow has fallen since Friday. We likely could have skied it but it was debatable so we opted to hike.

Observation 
[ Trails: Closed, Bare ground ]
Though Isabella may be among the first and last to have good skiing, we are in the same boat as the rest the State. No snow. But a lot of local skiers are instead enjoying the miles of bug-free hiking!

Morning
Observation 
Nope, we are not yet open because of inadequate snow. The good news is that we have had lots of very cold weather that has frozen down our many wetland bogs, so when we do get enough snow we should be able to open the trail (with exception of segments 9-10-11 that are closed due to logging activity).
