All of the trails except Rollercoaster (so about 15k) were groomed with the new (to us) Pisten Bully 100 on Wednesday. I skied (classic, even though there are no tracks set ) them today and was pleasantly surprised; it was better than I expected. I used rock skis but didn't add any major new scratches to the bases. The PB does a nice job of smoothing rough spots out. We need several more inches of snow before we can set tracks. B skis would be okay but I recommend rock skis. This begins a new era of trail grooming at Forest Springs; I did most of the grooming for 34 years but, with the new equipment, Adam is taking over and it will be great!
