A little over a week ago, we were wishing we had more snow.  It wasn’t that we lacked snow depth; we groomed for the first time on November 4, and we’ve had skiable snow ever since. But it was getting to be old snow. The snow had survived a few warmish days, had been tilled up and packed down numerous times, and it didn’t have that sparkly look and feel that a new fresh snow has.

As they say, be careful what you wish for.

New snow is not a problem anymore. We received  over 8 inches of snow over 48 hours early in the week, followed by 3 1/2 more inches on Friday, and a good 10 inches on Saturday night.

Groomers were out right way Sunday morning and the trails are in excellent shape.
