HAPPY NEW YEAR! FINALLY we got some snow! We were under a blizzard warning for two days but certainly saw no blizzard here. We got anywhere from 2-6′ in our area but some places north near TC got the foot forecast! We were out Monday between Beulah and Thompsonville and it was not too bad for the first snow, it was certainly rideable! White and pretty out there! If we had gotten a bit more the groomers were gonna go out, but now today its getting up there in temperature again, and tomorrow and Friday supposed to be up around 40, and 30’s after that. At least below freezing at night. So, this may not hold on. Not much snow in the next days forecasts either but there’s talk of another ‘storm’ the end of next week, so will have to wait and see. I’ll let you know when I know! C’mon winter, lets get going! Be smart, be safe, & I’ll CYA on the trails! Carol B
