Grooming Report 3/6

Mar 06, 2020

There is still plenty of coverage to get in some skiing, snowshoeing, and fat biking this weekend!

The snow pack has taken a bit of a hit with the recent mild temps but there is still plenty of coverage to get in some skiing, snowshoeing, and fat biking this weekend!

The windows for solid riding surfaces can be pretty narrow this time of year and if temperatures drop for long enough to set up the trails, early morning rides are ideal. Evening temps look to be cold enough to make for some pretty solid trail surfaces both Saturday and Sunday morning. Once the strong March sun gets higher in the sky and daytime temps rise to above the freezing mark the surface tends to loosen up and can create some challenging conditions. If you find yourself compromising the trails too much on your ride, consider turning back.

Please remember to keep an eye out for where fat bikes are restricted. There are signs on the trails in the appropriate locations and if you have any questions please stop in to the Winter Welcome Center.

GROOMING

The mild weather can often present challenging conditions to groom as the snow pack changes and surfaces become variable with the fluctuations in temps. The groomers will be out working the trails in order to create the best conditions possible and hope that Mother Nature will help out and do her part by providing some cooler temps to help set up the trails for the weekend.
