Open, 24º at 7 am and cloudy. Forecast high 33 and cloudy.
16 km open. Woodcock, Snow Goose, Turkey, Grouse, Goshawk, Peregrine and Chickadee.
From Hilary, “Your post makes it sound like we skiers have been suffering somehow and “enduring” the conditions – It’s been utterly glorious! Every day something a little different – and still total magic. The grooming has been amazing – and the skiing even better. Thank you!”
From Ian, “Skiing today is fair to good, hard pack skiing, getting a little fast with a lot of thin spots. Turkey, Woodcock, Snow Goose, Grouse, Peregrine and Chickadee are open. 16 km, classic and 6 km skate. ”
And now you know why I am stuck in the middle, “Sounding like a lawyer,” is what Eddie told me.
Yesterday Ian and Dick spent about 8 hours total shoveling out on the Woodcock and Snow Goose. They are preparing for the weekend weather. A weather event is coming. It appears right now to be mostly snow, switching to rain and back to snow. As always we hope/wish for a net gain of snow.

I have to agree with Hilary! Yesterday I had a great time skiing all the open trails at least once. The day’s different thing was a dusting of fresh snow. A quarter inch? Amazing how it improved nowax grip and made the trails even more fun.
Crossed paths with Dick shoveling on Snowgoose, making the trail ready for the next pass by the groomer.
