Tubing into a barrel, pumped into the gathering tank.

Open, 22º at 7am and sunny. High today 34º. Skiing will be softer and slower between 10:00am and 3pm. 22 km open. Ian is grooming a bit – Turkey, Woodcock, Snow Goose groomed and tracked. Grouse, Goshawk and Upper Peregrine for skate. 22 km classic and 6 km skate.

We are gathering sap this morning. And if there is enough sap, getting the evaporator going and making some syrup

The birds are loving this spring weather, the chickadees are singing their spring song. Chuck heard a barred owl hooting the other day, we hope he is catching red squirrels. Chuck has seen robins and red winged black birds. The other day Cindy and I saw a hawk riding a thermal. And on Saturday morning out back at the snow measuring stake we had 32 ” of snow. The most snow measured at the stake all season. Spring is emerging, it is just not in a hurry.

Great day for a ski.
