First report in from the groomers – lots of snow, blowing snow and whiteouts overnight! Woot Woot! Trail coming into town on the pavement is thin because of the wind blowing it off, town trail by the campground is good, out in the woods it’s nuttin’ but good…

We are still flying the Red and Yellow flags due to ice under the snow.

*Rest Of Today: Warmer. A chance of snow through noon…then snow in the afternoon. Snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches. Highs around 23. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph becoming south in the afternoon. Chance of snow 90 percent. Lowest wind chill readings to 15 below zero through noon.

onditions are Fair to Poor, depending on woods or railroad grade. We saw some light snow yesterday but it didn’t amount to much overall. The radar shows snow moving in–it should arrive early this afternoon. Chance of snow is 100% and accumulations are predicted to be 2′ overnight. Saturday is going to bring more snow–up to 3′ and windy conditions. Now there is some chance of ice/rain pellets late in the day but it’s too early to tell just yet. Sunday shows up to another inch of snow. There isn’t enough snow for our groomers to work with today, but they hope to go out this weekend. We need 4-6′ more for the tractors to run. If you go out you won’t think conditions are that great–there are deep ruts in areas of the trail near Weber Lake so be cautious. Even though there’s some snow out there, don’t go riding with the expectation of excellent conditions. Hopefully today/overnight will bring us the predicted accumulations and turn this into a great weekend.
