We are open and the skiing is sublime. 14º at 6 am and another 4.5 inches of snow since Friday morning. Forecast high 14º and partly sunny .

25 km classic and 6 km skate. Ian and Jonathan are out grooming, most will be groomed, but you may be lucky enough to get a loop with fresh powder.

So, no wimping out, we have all been waiting for winter. And it is here, in all it’s splendid glory. All that expensive clothing you have purchased over the years. Get it out and wear it. And then know you will be over dressed and sweaty. And you will need a dry shirt to wear home and layers so you can adjust as needed. Hat, neck gaiter, mittens, hand warmers, and smart layers. You’ve got this…….

BECAUSE the skiing is absolutely fabulous, sublime, magical. Better than you could ever hope for. So just get out here.

You will now see signs like the sign below on the Woodcock at the road crossings. We have had 4 vehicles stuck on the ski trails in the last 6 days. The last one, on Thursday night, went down this trail farther than the photo can see, around a corner and down the hill. He called his buddy to come tow him out. Ian found both trucks still stuck out there at 4:30am. He and Chuck pulled them off the trail at 6:30am. Between getting stuck, around midnight?, and getting pulled off the trail by Ian and Chuck, they shoveled the snow off the trail and into the woods. My long way of saying THANKS to the shovel crew that showed up to help Ian Friday afternoon at 4:30 to shovel snow back onto the trail! YOU all are sublime. (Sublime; excellence, grandeur, or beauty as to inspire great admiration or awe.)
