March 19th Grooming Report
Sunny Sunday
On Monday, Lena Poduska won the U16 national championship AND had the fastest women’s time of the day in ALL age classes in the 7.5km Classic interval start. She wrapped up the event with another 1st-place finish in Wednesday's Freestyle mass start and was 3rd in Tuesday's freestyle sprint.
CONGRATULATIONS to Lena on this incredible end to an already impressive season, following on her 11th-place finish at the Nordic Nations Cup in February.
It’s looking to be a beautiful Sunday for skiing! Crystal-clear blue skies make for a wonderful skiing experience, if you can fight off the cold. A warm, crackling fire is just the ticket to warm up those cold digits, and Trail Creek has a fire going every morning in the cabin, so if you’re on the verge of frostbite, be sure to stop in and defrost.
Today’s grooming took place last night, in anticipation of very cold temperatures last night leading to a potentially mediocre groom today. Instead, the warmer snow and fading sun were teased into providing beautiful bounteous corduroy in a single best-line pass of most trails in the system. They might be very hard early on, so especially for wooded trails, consider giving them a little more time to soften to ensure you get the best experience.
Groomer’s choice for today is a heartrate-boosting sprint around the sprint loop!
