March 25th Grooming Report
Foxy Encounter!
During last night’s grooming one of our resident foxes was in quite the social mood. As the Pisten Bully rumbled out through the lower East Fields it initially scampered off the trail, but after some reconsideration decided to get back to work on what must surely be a tasty morsel just under the snow. Click here or on the image above to watch the video of this magical encounter. Unfortunately for the fox it did not score any tidbits in the recorded exploration, although the evening hunt was just beginning with numerous sightings as grooming continued.
Magical might be a bit of a stretch in describing the skiing today at Trail Creek, but while probably not a top 10 day, you can get a pretty good workout if you come out for a Nordic ski today. Last night’s grooming was basically a skate grooming pass on all trails with an additional classic track setting pass on the fields. The snow never got very warm yesterday so the classic track was a bit variable. Skate lanes are very fast early with slowing but reasonable skiing as the day warms to the mid 30’s. There is a pretty good chance of a little snow which could actually be nice for skier if their wax is good.
Look for the next grooming Friday evening. Groomer’s choice for today is the fields.
