ON THE MEND!
Great News, the Pisten Bully is back up and running and working the trails. Light new snowfall with the trail system in an overall good condition. We have a Winter Storm coming through tonight which will really help. Its going to take a few days to get back to the great trails we had before the break downs but improvement is on the way. The programs spare machine has been moved back to our Christmas staging area to now just work the west side of our trail system. Stay alert as trouble areas still have a few pockets that will develop throughout the day. The Big Deere is under repair and will hopefully be back to us next week. Get out and ride safe, stay right and enjoy the great riding conditions! Keep doing the Cold Weather Snow Dancing and Stay Tuned for updates!
