Early morning happy skiers are saying trails are in excellent shape!

All trails were groomed and tracks were set this morning. With 5 ” of new snow, trails are soft, but the trees are glistening. A beautiful day to ski!

Snow, snow, lovely snow! 7″ of fresh snow last night and today. MECCA groomers got all trails rolled today. Early tomorrow morning we will start setting tracks and grooming skate trails. Trails should be in great shape by noon (Friday) for a great weekend of skiing.

The rain has quit and temperatures have dropped, but no new snow has fallen. The trail base is refreezing and we have some new snow in the forecast for Thursday. We plan on grooming Friday morning for the weekend skiing. Fingers crossed for fresh snow!

Sadly, we are inside watching the roof drip from the rain falling. The weatherman says rain will switch to snow tonight and we hope he is right! We will groom again Wednesday morning when colder temperatures are back.

Skate lanes across the entire system were groomed. Skate lanes are smooth and firm, with just a few soft spots. New tracks were set on the Wolf loop; tracks are firm and deep. The weather is beautiful and our trails are in great shape.
