Cold is back and sorely needed. 4 days of temps above freezing, and pushing 50d took a serious toll on what we have out there.
The base on the RR Grade is basically gone. All open areas, and mostly toast. The snow in the woods area has held up, mostly, and is now about 2″ of ice with a little stuff on top.
We are going to need a storm to get things back into shape for the season, the 1/2″ of lake effect that we got yesterday isn’t going to cut it. Forecast is for cold, and a little snow most days for awhile. We are going to need a good 6″ before I can send the groomers out again.
