Another solid coating of frost on the grounds this morning. Stiff breeze from the south bringing the windchill factor into the upper 20’s. A reminder winter is not too far behind! Looks like some colder weather on tap a week from now. If there is any moisture to work with we could see some white!
Fall grooming on Roy’s Run yesterday. A few low spots holding water from the heavy rainfall two weekends ago. All in all the trails are relatively dry and in great shape. Roy’s should be completed today and Bullhead on tap later in the week, weather permitting. Photos below from Roy’s Run, yesterday.
Hard to believe we are nearing the end of October. A gorgeous start to the week with bluebird skies, light winds and chilly temps. A solid frost last night with all areas around Maplelag white this morning. Quite a few of the remaining leaves coming down over the weekend with just a few oaks and poplar trees still hanging on to some leaves. The tamarac trees are in their peak and are beautiful standing out in swamps and sloughs. Bob here early this week to do some touch up on the ski trails and fall grooming planned for Roy’s Run and Bullhead lake trails this week as well.
Freshly fallen maple leaves touched by early morning frost today.
Pretty much a perfect Fall day. A mix of sun and clouds, light winds and temps near 50. The rest of the Pumpkin Run course was cleared today and things are looking great. Tomorrow we will mark the course and do any last minute fine tuning. Photos from today.
Yet another beautiful Fall day with a mix of sun/clouds and a stiff breeze from the northwest ushering in some cooler air. Today we worked on the Pumpkin Run course, clearing forest litter and blowing leaves off the trail. Some incredible Fall color remains on sections of the trail and should be one of the more colorful Pumpkin Runs in the history of the event. We will continue working on the rest of the trails used for the Pumpkin Run. Should be a great day on Saturday. Photos from today.
A beautiful day in the woods. Trails drying out nicely after 3.5″ of rain over the weekend. Not much trail work other than Jim clearing out some underbrush near Sap Run ski trail. An early evening ride on the mountain bike course founds beautiful conditions. Expected the rain and wind from the weekend to take down the a lot of the leaves but on the north facing slopes, there is some incredible Fall color. A ride on the mountain bike course early this evening found fantastic conditions and amazingly dry….no mud. Things are looking great for the Pumpkin Run this weekend.
