Wed. Jan. 31

With Monday's snowfall plus a little more today, we have just barely enough snow to ski on. I have rolled and combed some of the trails in the central area where the ground below is the smoothest. The snow cover is very thin. It is possible to ski, but it's not good skiing.

January 30 - New snow!

We have some new snow, but I'm not sure if it's enough to ski on. I'm not onsite today. A little more snow is forecast for tomorrow. I will advise tomorrow whether skiing is open again.

January 29 - return to winter

The warmth of the past week took away all of our snow, so there is still no skiing. But now that cooler weather has returned, there is a chance we may get back to some skiing. Some snow is forecast for tonight, and there may be some more on Wednesday. Stay tuned, and I'll let you know when the trails are ready again.

Jan. 24, 2018

After a couple of very warm days with rain, colder weather has returned briefly. We have lost almost all our snow. The little bit of snow that remained after the thaw has turned to either crust, or hard glare ice. All this is covered by about a half cm of new snow. Ski trails are still closed, and will be until further notice.
If you are walking any trails in the area, icers are recommended to prevent falling on the hidden icy patches.

Sat. Jan. 20 - losing our snow again

It has been possible to ski the past 4 days, but with warm temperatures today and tomorrow, it looks like we will lose most of our snow. I will be closing the trails today.

Thurs. Jan. 18

Conditions remain about the same here. There is just enough snow to ski on; it's definitely a bit thin in many places. Rock skis recommended. We're having a light snowfall here this morning. Every little bit helps, but with warm temperatures coming again this weekend, I don't think this snow is going to last very long.
