Trail 8 was groomed from trail 2 to Tula.
Trail 8 is in good condition at this time.
Trail 160 was groomed from trail 2 to the Teepee
Trail 160 is moderate at this time. Still rocks showing in the woods because of lack of snow. Snow thins just after the Teepee. #ironwood #westernup
1s, to Marenisco and 8w to Wakefield were groomed last night. Shout-out to the Marenisco crew.. Thank you!! 8e to Ewen was groomed and is improving but still a heavily traveled trail and get's bad by afternoon. 13n well it was attempted, long story short, machine spun out on the hills and had to turn around.
102 was also covered, but without a drag. Main purpose was to knock down moguls and flatten berms.
We'll be sending a machine up 13n tonight without a drag to try and get that section back under control. We got the snow and we definitely have the traffic! Be patient, we'll get caught back up.
