Our tractors are out today building a base. It has been snowing since 7 am non stop and we have 12 inches in some locations.

Average snow fall along our trail system is at 9 inches. Temps are very frigid and will not warm up until next week. The cold temps and fluffy snow are not good for packing however our tractors will be out today trying to establish a base. We will not groom until warmer temperatures create better conditions for actual grooming. Remember at all times to be on the look out for groomers they are a very large vehicle that can not move off trail. You must slow down and proceed with caution.

Hi all! So it’s coming down good again today although the forecast isnt calling for much but we’re seeing several inches already! YAY! Snowbirds tell me there is about 9′ out there along the trail system. The rigs are going out today to pan and pack some to try to establish a base but are not grooming yet. The snow is just too fluffy. It is frigid cold out there yet too and doesnt look like much warm up for sveeral days yet. Remember to watch out for the tractors out there and stay outta their way!

Happy Day baby! Trails officially OPEN today! Yeehah! Good news and bad news on snow though. We have gotten anywhere from 10-16′ of snow in the last several days but now are experiencing a warm up. We were building a base up but its melting down quick now. Forecast says the warm up goes on for a few days now and back cold end of the week and into next. Lets hope snow too! We need more snow and cold before the groomers can get out there but there IS snow for the moment and trails are so-so to poor but better than nothing right? NOTE!
