Day 18 of skiing this season.
Yesterday's snow squall left us with close to 10 cm of new snow. About half the network has been packed; hopefully the rest will get done today. The skiing is very good.
It's cool this morning, at -17, but should warm up to about -7 later on.
If you're going to ski, either today or tomorrow should provide the best conditions. There is some warmer weather moving in on Saturday.
MID-DAY UPDATE: It's been snowing since about 9 this morning, bringing another 2 or 3 cm. I groomed this morning, covering all the trails in the north end and most of the south section. A few short pieces of #7, #2 and #13 were not done. Packed trails will have a top-dressing of fresh snow on top; there's nothing I can do about that, and I'm not going to complain about getting more snow.
Skiing is very good right now.
Are you able to skate ski the majority of the trails? Also thank you for your work, they look like beautiful trails!
ReplyDeleteNo, the trails are not suitable for skate skiing. They are single-track, intended for classic skiing. The groomed width is only 1.5 metres.
