December 12th Grooming Report--Failure to Launch?!

December 12th Grooming Report

Failure to Launch?!

There has been an interesting trio of moose claiming Trail Creek as part of their home range for the past few weeks.  While they weren’t cooperative enough to all line up for a photo, the right moose is momma moose, center moose is the calf, and the moose on the left is actually a tiny yearling bull, if you look closely the red arrow points at one of his antlers.

The fascinating part is that the little bull is pretty much inseparable from the other two, leading one to wonder if he is a 2019 calf that is having a hard time leaving mom; something different to ponder and search for on your next Nordic outing.

If your next Nordic outing is at Trail Creek today you will find lots of great skiing.  Today’s grooming was with the Pisten Bully and covered pretty much all trails recently groomed.  Since yesterday’s grooming about an inch of additional snow has fallen, making for some great corduroy today.  Trails in the close field, Woolsey Woods, Armin’s, Moose Loop, and Animal Farm received multiple passes with fresh classic tracks.  Pretty much wherever you go today you will find some nice skiing.

Groomer’s choice for today is Armin’s
