March 16 Thursday afternoon

We survived the warm snap & rain these past few days. Although it’s still skiable, the track isn’t great right now. Doug started grooming this morning, but the groomer got stuck. Currently only some of the track is groomed for skate, and none for classic. The City helped pull out the groomer this afternoon. Jeff and Ryan are going to work on the track this evening. Hopefully, we will have a good track for tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the spring golf course prep has begun. I skied today with a big old tractor on my right - it was plowing snow off putting greens. If you go out now, you’ll see deep tire tracks from the tractor, bare grass in a few spots, a partially groomed trail before the groomer got stuck, and a big puddle near the parking lot at the end of the ski loop.

If you don’t mind a few obstacles, it is still skiable and possible that it’ll be great after tonight’s grooming. We’re looking at crust cruising any day now
