More Snow

 It seems like we are getting January's snow in March. Starting yesterday afternoon, we have received about 5 cm of new snow, and flurries will likely continue through today. Right now, with a temperature of -5, skiing is very good.

I will begin grooming after breakfast. The only concern today is that the temperature may reach 0 this afternoon, so the snow may become a bit sticky. Skiing will be best this morning.

11 a.m. update: Trails have been groomed with the light rubber comb. Some trails in the central area have been track-set. Although there wasn't a lot of new snow to work with, the track went in pretty well. There is light snow flurry activity right now; temperature -1. Skiing is very good.

Further update at noon. The new-fallen snow has become very sticky, as the temperature is now sitting at 0. You may need a glide-enhancing anti-stick wax on your skis. Otherwise, you may end up with big clumps of packing snow stuck to the bottom of your ski.
