NICE RIDING CONDITIONS CONSIDERING….
Overall trail conditions are good to very good. Soft snow and ribbons not holding long but the base it hard and flat so very minimal chop developing through the day. Still, we really need a substantial snowfall to bind things together and keep the groomed ribbons lasting longer. The season is short so our theory is to keep the trails flat, riding a flat sugary trail is way more enjoyable than dealing with 3 foot moguls. We will continue to groom and do our best to at least keep the chop to a minimum. Keep the cold weather snow dancing going, Enjoy the Trails and Ride Safe!

SOFT CORNERS
- Trails are flat but ride with caution in the corners. Not having new snow is making for loose turning conditions. Stay Right, slow down and be alert.
