Plenty of snow with overall trails in good condition. With the weekend rain and no new snow some sections of the trails have a loose layer of snow on top of ice. The recent sunny days are creating some icy corners and a few water holes so stay alert for changing trail conditions. Our 7 miles of Trail 8 North of Shingleton had extra attention yesterday with Operator Chris making 4 passes to clean out the (3) bridge crossings, moguls and banked corners. Snow in the weekend forecast will hopefully freshen the trails up a bit. Until then Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!

A few pics from last night’s groom. Snow faired the warm Temps and rain well. Trail is in good shape still. Some areas the snow is turning to sugar, and that doesn’t pack or set up so those areas will get choppy fast. But over all the trail is still in great shape. There are many branches hanging down from the ice, so keep an eye out for face slappers. They will go away when the ice falls off. Spent some time helping out S.O.R.V.A. last night as well. They are still down groomers, we will do what we can to help them out. Ride right, and be safe out there.
