LIGHT SNOW WITH GREAT GROOMING RESULTS!
Overall trail conditions groomed out very good Sunday and Sunday night. Trails are holding great and only getting a little choppy by the next groom. Trail 8 West of Trail 7 North seems to get the worst with larger moguls in the corners as the day progresses. We have been operating a bit handicapped in the corners with the new 6175R John Deere not having its blade repaired yet. Thankfully the pulled Dubie Groomer can pick-up most of the slack.
Past 24 hour Grooming operations:
Trails 8 East to 7 miles north of Shingleton and 8 West, 7 South to CR440, 7 North to Christmas, Trail 419 East and West, Trail 417, Trail 418, Trail 422 and Wetmore Spur.
Tonight’s Forecast: Mostly Couldy, 24 degrees and 5 to 10 mph Southeast winds
Cover Photo: Trail 8 corners flattened north of Shingleton.
PLEASE ride with caution, stay right and be respectful, stay on the trail and off the throttle when in the towns.
Keep Snow Dancing with your friends and stay tuned for updates!
WATCH FOR GROOMERS
- Machines are often running two shifts so please be alert and watch for groomers day and night.
