Conditions are slowly eroding, but the amazing crew at Mercer, have tracked the entire course, and it's firm and fantastic! Very few thin spots, tracks holding in the steeps, hard to believe, harder to leave. Get here, before things get away from us.

What a difference 15 miles makes. Kay and I drove NW to Mercer for our first ski of the season. MECCA trails were groomed tracked this morning. There were no bare spots and yesterday's light snow added to the base. What a delight! We'll be back!
