November 30th Grooming Report
Shades of Russet in a Forest of Gray!
Currently at Trail Creek the winter migration of our ungulates has resulted in quite a few critters ghosting through our trees, giving you the opportunity of a little extra excitement on your next Nordic outing. It is always an added bonus when you spot the warm reddish browns of our local elk, deer, and moose, usually moving silently through our gray winter forest. Recent spottings indicate about a dozen elk, a handful of moose, and three or four whitetail deer are out and about.
If you are lucky enough to head out and about on Trail Creek’s trails today you will be greeted by a few peaks of sunshine, a few flakes of snow, mostly calm winds, and as of 11:40 AM the temperature was -4ºC-/25ºF. You will also discover that the Pisten Bully has been on almost all recently groomed trails with double passes on all trails except for the Forest Service trails. Trails on which classic tracks were set include the close field, Woolsey Woods, Moose Loop, and Armin’s. The inch or two of fresh snow set up very nicely today resulting in some crisp corduroy and very nice early season conditions.
Groomer's choice for today is Armin's.
