NEW SNOW – VERY GOOD TRAILS!
Moderate snow falling with high winds and the trail system in an overall very good condition. We have a Winter Storm coming through right now and grooming results have been better than expected. Expect to see drifting, especially in the Trail 418 AuTrain area. Get out and enjoy some really nice riding conditions. As far as equipment status the Big Deere is under repair and will hopefully be back to us next week. We are using the program’s spare Pisten Bully in its place for now. Keep doing the Cold Weather Snow Dancing and Stay Tuned for updates!
