With the light, fluffy snow and forecasted high winds staff are only rolling/packing the trails today Thursday. The strategy behind rolling today is that the grooves made by packer will catch the blowing snow and thus keep more snow on our trails. By keeping more snow on our ski trails we can (hopefully) extend their lifespan and maybe even ski longer than a week at a time. Groomers will be out Friday to set classic tracks.

The thawing and then freezing of the snow has made the trails very icy and some areas are quite treacherous. We would not recommend skiing at this time.

We received about 4 inches of slushy snow on Thursday and tried grooming it this afternoon. The trails have been set with two classic tracks. There's a short trail near the shelter for skate ski. The condition is considered fair for all of them.
