Many thanks to Doug for this final report and all his amazing work. Thanks also to Jeff for his excellent help throughout the season. Unless we get a good snowfall, there won’t be any more grooming. You’ll probably still be able to ski throughout the next week, but likely on thin snow mixed with patches of bare grass.
Here’s Doug’s report this morning:
It is the end!
Thursday evening I spent some time trying to make a usable track for Saturday's last hurrah. The classic track was reset. The tracks were moved to new snow wherever possible and they are about 90 % covered with snow on the bottom of the tracks. Beware of hills on southern facing slopes; the sun has done its duty.
The skate track is better and has been moved in only a couple of places. The hills are a problem and may take a few feet of grass skiing. The bridge across the river has about 10 ft of bare concrete and the far end of the Cow Pasture by the freeway is also bare. I would give up on the Cow Pasture.Lastly, I would get out early before the snow turns to slush. We have had a great season of skiing; considering the low amount snow we have received, it was almost a miracle. Enjoy today!
