Groomer’s Report - Thursday 3/9/23

Good morning skiers, winter is still with us! This morning we have 31 degrees at 9:00 AM and 3" new snow. Skies are overcast. The low was 29 and yesterday's high was 37. We have fresh skate and classic grooming on all trails this morning. Skate lanes packed well, especially in the meadow that was groomed with the PB100. Classic should be nice on all trails.

Today's picture is from the meadow loops near the parking lot.

TRAIL RE-ROUTE - BEAVER CREEK TRAIL AT MT. SPRINGS - Each spring the Yakima Indians plant fish in a pond just north of Hot Tub Hill. To get to the pond with their large truck they have to plow the ski trail down to dirt in that area. As horse sleigh rides are done for the year, we have permission to route the trail over the horse bridge, connecting back to the BCT just past the Hitching Post area. We were able to put a little more snow on the road crossing last night so that should be skiable today.

TRAIL CLOSURE - SOUTH SIDE GRIZZLY MOUNTAIN - We have a growing melt out on the south side so we have decided to close that side. You can still ski to the summit viewpoint from the north side trail (original route).

Still great skiing out there, get it while it lasts!

Today's groomers were Gus, Josiah, and Rob W.

Happy Skiing!
