February 14th Grooming Report
The Official Map!
The Moose Chase is nearly here and above is the Official 2019 Moose Chase map, as usual in the grooming report clicking on the image will result in a higher resolution image. You might be thinking that with all the snow we have received as of late that just sitting around the fire Saturday morning might be the best plan; but you would be sorry as it should be a great day, get those registrations in!
Today’s grooming was rather bizarre with quite positive results. In the early part of grooming the foot of fresh heavy snow was flowing around the tiller a bit. There was a brief period as we passed through freezing that things almost stopped working but then as temperatures continued to warm a little more the snow was flowing and compacting quite nicely. Two Pisten Bully passes of the Moose Chase Course with fresh classic tracks were made today and conditions are all in all quite nice and firmer than you would think. The only downside is that the warm temps are causing the trees to shed snow, branches, needles, etc. so you might encounter a bit of detritus on the snow.
Look for grooming early tomorrow morning finishing hopefully before 10 AM course inspection, a couple of evening passes Friday night, and then an early morning pass to buff everything out just before the Moose Chase.
Groomer’s choice for today is the Moose Chase Course.
