We received new snow again overnight. This is probably the largest single snowfall we've got so far this year; it's close to 10 cm. It's beautiful powder, so right now, we have great "backcountry" conditions.
Yesterday, I groomed about 2/3 of the trails, including lots of track-setting. This morning, that is all buried. I will start grooming right after breakfast. With this amount of snow, I think I will start with the roller/comb only, and then maybe follow up later with the track-setter.
Additional snowfall is possible today, in squalls, and the wind is going to pick up, so there will be some drifting.
The temperature is comfortable; currently -2 and it will drop to -8 during the day.
Noon Update: All trails have been groomed with the roller/comb, and some in the central area have been track-set as well. Skiing is very good. It is getting windy, and there is some drifting in open areas.
Please note that none of the trails in the most northerly part of the network are open. Logging operations have made them unskiable. The furthest north you can go is trails #9 and #14, and the connections of these to trails #1 and #1a.
