Friday 6 pm

We had a full crew out today grooming early this morning. The skate lanes groomed up pretty well but the groomers are bringing up some debris…not rocks but organic matter…dirt on the high spots and leaves and nuts when we groom over where the squirrels are digging holes in the trails looking for their nuts. There are about 6 bedrock exposures on the 43.8 km we groomed today

classic on the main trails are worn, glazed but skiing pretty decent. We reset classic tracks on Hemlock (the beginning is rough after the slight downhill but the rest was pretty good) jack and white pine, tamarack 2 track and sunset groomed up well. Wolf tracks is still pretty hit and miss. I am going to close puumala tomorrow and ridge runner because of some thin snow conditions on the downhills.

we have a full groomer crew in the early morning, based on the forecast we should be able to make lemonade in the morning…
