February 10th Grooming Report-Ethereal Snowflakes!

February 10th Grooming Report

Ethereal Snowflakes!

Imagine a pair of 7 year old boys, each with an age appropriate cantankerous streak, alone in a room with nothing but a pair of premium quality goose down pillows.  When you return to the room fifteen minutes later what should you discover but a cloud of gently dancing goose down feathers filling the air, not to mention a pair of guilty looking boys.  While the boys may or may not be here today, the gently dancing champagne snowflakes are here in abundance once again.

There was about 6 inches at the beginning of grooming with an additional 5 falling through the course of today’s efforts.  As of 1:15 PM the gossamer crystals are continuing to fall at a moderate rate with no wind and a temperature of -6ºC/21ºF.  Today’s grooming began with a Pisten Bully skate/classic pass of the entire Moose Chase Course which was followed with a skate only pass.  The extreme dry and light nature of the recent snow resulted in some outflow around the tiller and slightly rustic conditions, but a fair number of skiers have been out and reporting in with nothing but smiles when encountering the magical Nordic environment prevailing today.

Groomer’s choice for today is the Moose Chase Course.
