Friday 9 PM

Just coming from grooming in the bigger Pisten Bully, Trails are looking great cold dry powder.  I groomed about 20 km the groom team will be back out in the early AM….check previous posts for chalet and building status.

Friday 10 AM

4-5 inches of fresh snow! Just coming with the grooming crew and plowing crew, We groomed all trails except Windy Ridge and Pelty and Rudy’s. 1 inch of new snow on top of some of the grooming. Groomers will be out Saturday AM.

Thursday 8 PM

The rain turned to snow, we will go out with both Pisten Bullies in the AM if it continues, and the single track groomer “widetrack” will be busy setting tracks on the classic only.  The base is solid from daily grooming  and should groom up well…with or with out new snow. Check out the past posts for the Foundation and the Virus.
