December 23 - Getting better

 We received about 4 cm of new snow yesterday. I groomed the central trails last night, and even managed to put in a shallow track. I will pack the southern and northern portions of the network this morning.

So, conditions have improved a bit, but our snow coverage is still thin. Rock skis are recommended. Ski with caution, especially on the more difficult hills. Rocks and tree roots are lurking just below the snow surface.

Today looks like a nice day to ski, with current temperature -9 and a predicted high of -3. Things are not looking so good for tomorrow and Saturday: above-freezing temperatures and chance of rain.

11 a.m. Update: all trails have now been packed with the roller and comb. Here are a couple of photos I took while grooming.
