ABR Trails

Full groomer crew of 4 out again this morning. The trails are grooming up well and the classic only trails got new tracks again this morning. Skiers were very pleased with conditions again today. We have 2-3 groomers out in the morning touching up skate lanes.

We took both Pisten Bullies out today and basically powertilled all the combination trails again today. Partner took a light groomer and Re groomed some more classic only. We saw lots of smiling faces. We will back out in the early morning to regroom.

season passes on sale for the rest of the this year and ski all of next year. Never had an ABR season pass? Buy a newbie pass for $100, ski the rest of this season and all of next season.

The trails were very good today! The new snow groomed up well. The Pisten Bullies don’t have a problem with the mixing in the new snow and the old snow but the lighter equipment can get it done but it takes a few passes…today it was 4 passes on the single tracks…but they turned out great too. Saturday we plan to have Wide Track or Partner regroom Hemlock, Jack Pine, White Pine single tracks and Crasher Pisten Bully groom Blueberry to the Highlands and Ridge Runner. Pig Heart will Pisten Bully the other trails on the north end.

4 groomers made great progress on grooming the trails this morning. Trails are skiing well and groomers will be back out again Saturday morning.

4 inches of snow yesterday and another 2 inches today! We had a full crew of groomers in this morning…Crasher ran the Pisten Bully on some of the flatter trails and did a great job of mixing up the new 4 inches of new snow with the old snow. The rest of used lighter equipment to regroom the rest of the trail system. The classic tracks set were OK, not perfect like we are used to, but after the 2 inches of snow after 9 AM it seemed fine. Skating was highly rated even this afternoon with 1-2 inches of fluff on top of the groomed surface. We groomed 95 km this morning, We will back out with a groomer team of 4 again early AM and will have at least 1 Pisten Bully out, maybe both depending on conditions. I expect excellent mid winter ski conditions for the weekend. Beginner recreational skiers will be happy thanks to the new 6 inches of snow.
