More Great Skiing

 Yesterday turned out to be a really nice ski day, with great snow, blue skies and sunshine. The high temperature of -8 was comfortable, and provided good glide on the snow.

Today might be even better. The snow is still good, trails are in nice condition and the temperature will reach a very nice -5. There is a bonus for early skiers: the trees are covered in hoar frost this morning. A little bit of light snowfall may move in late in the afternoon.

Get out to ski while you can; in southern Ontario you never know how long the snow will last.

By the way, yesterday was Day 60 of skiable conditions here this season.

Great Skiing Continues

 It's cool again this morning, currently reading -16. But it should reach -8 this afternoon, which would be the warmest we've seen in about 2 weeks.

Ski conditions are still very good. I will do a tiny bit of grooming this morning to tidy up the Twisty trail; other than that, I think everything is in good shape.
