Things are not changing that much out there. It got around freezing this weekend which did produce a bit of a chop on our trails up by Trout Lake. The infamous last 2 miles got a little tore up on Saturday, but should be all fixed back up by now. Everything else is just about the same. A couple of tough spots on the RR Grade North of Iggy, and in Moran, the sides of the roads suck, and the pipeline is tough going. The forest trails are in good shape, and everything else is just this fantastic base waiting for snow.

Looking OK, but we are getting to the point that we are going to need more snow if we are going to keep the Southern loop ridable. The Northern loop should be OK through the weekend, new snow would fix up the trouble spots.

So far this season we are running about 18% of normal grooming. I sure hope that we pick up some groomable snow in the near future to get those number up some.
