December 7th Grooming Report

Bright and Sparkly Day!

There’s lots of sunshine beaming on to our bountiful snow today, creating a myriad of sparkles to delight any lucky enough to make it out for a Nordic ski.  The weather is about as good it gets from the Nordic perspective with all that sun and an 11:30 AM temperature of a 24ºF.  A smile will surely cross your face if you can get in a ski today.

We have had a bit of a hiccup in the grooming department at Trail Creek.  Yesterday after grooming all the trails and just beginning to do an initial grooming for the year of the East Fields, our Husky developed several fault codes and proceeded to shut down.  As of report time a technician is on his way and hopefully a speedy resolution of the issues can be found allowing the Husky to promptly be returned to duty.

For today’s grooming the roller and Ginzu were dug out of the snow and brought into service.  Almost every trail did receive Ginzu grooming with multiple passes on all of the private property in addition to Olympic and Animal Farm on the National Forest.  Fresh classic tracks were also set in the Close Field today while most of the tracks in the woods are in pretty good shape.  All in all the Ginzu did a pretty good job and you should find plenty of joy if you get in a Nordic ski today.

Groomer’s choice is to explore the beginnings of what is to be in the very sunny East Fields.
