Snow falling today and as of 10:00am, close to 2″ has accumulated. Total accumulation expected in the 3-5″ range. Grooming on select classic trails today. Skate trails scheduled for grooming this afternoon and tomorrow morning and new tracks set Saturday morning for the weekend.

Wednesday report: Another dandy day during the last week of February. Wow, the month is flying by. Felt like January with single digit temps and a honest wind from the northwest but bright intense sun taking off the edge and it felt awesome out there today. A half inch dusting of big wet flake snow last night and flurries this morning before clearing off with beautiful intense sunshine. Grooming in the morning on Sap Run, Mother Hen, Loon Return, Skaters Waltz and Skaters Waltz extension. Skiing reported as fantastic today and conditions could not be much better. A good base of snow on the trails with the compacted base 5-10″ and snow depth in the woods 1-2 feet.Grooming also on the lake today packing out the snow and blading/pushing snow in the transition area from lake to trail. Lotvola Cup not until March 7th but prepping snow will season it proper for race day. Since the blade was on the Pisten Bully, a gaplike jump was built at the bottom of Mt Maplelag for the jibskaters.
