February 9 - a tiny bit of new snow

 Day 53 of skiing this season.

The forecast 2 cm snowfall overnight was a bit of a disappointment. Instead, we received a very light dusting of perhaps half a cm. Still, it's enough to provide some softness on the surface of the trails.

The skiing conditions are good on our trails. Yesterday's grooming was reasonably effective at softening up the hard packed surfaces, and there was not a lot of skier traffic, so things have remained pretty much the same. I don't plan on grooming today.

Again, it's a bit cool at a temperature of -12, but there is no wind. I very much prefer this kind of weather to what we had earlier in the winter, when I got up every morning wondering if it would be above or below freezing. The forecast looking  ahead looks good, with a chance of a significant snowfall on the weekend.
