For Experts Only

 Our high temperature yesterday was +1 with sunshine, so the snow became very moist, almost slushy in places. With a cooler temperature of -2 this morning, the snow surface has become crusty. In some places it's quite icy. The forecast says the temperature will continue to drop as the day progresses.

I will try some grooming this morning, to see if I can produce a better surface condition. Only very good skiers should ski here today. Snow cover is thin; rock skis are recommended.

Update: I have groomed about half of the network, all in the southern and central areas. The result is a considerably improved surface. On the groomed trails, you will find predominantly loose-packed granular snow, with some icy/crusty sections. I will groom northern trails later today.

Another update! (2:20 p.m.) All northern trails have now been groomed, except for #1a, which is blocked by fallen trees. Skiers will have to take a detour around 1a until I can clear the trail tomorrow.
