NORDIC UPDATE 12/27/16

12/27/2016

 
::Co​nditions:: 
 -New snowfall last 24 hours: < 1 inch
 -Base: 2-3 inches
 ::Volunteer Groomer Activity Report:: 
 -Skate: Jolly Long, and Sugarbush Dog Trail out to the Jolly entrance.
 -Classic: tracked: Sugarbush Classic, part of Birch Hill and Oppedahl's.

Comments: It was a bit cold for grooming up the ice today, so what was groomed today came out a bit chunky, with the tracks setting relatively poorly.  We may try to regroom some of this again tomorrow.

NORDIC UPDATE 12/26/2016

12/26/2016

 
::Co​nditions:: 
 -New snowfall last 24 hours: < 1 inch
 -Base: 2-3 inches
 ::Volunteer Groomer Activity Report:: 
 -Skate: Anchor, Seagull, Rollercoaster and Telford
 -Classic: tracked: Anchor, Seagull, Rollercoaster and Telford

Comments: I would rate the trails we groomed as good conditions, I didn't see any thin spots, but the classic tracks didn't set real well.  The trails we didn't groom are still boilerplate, so be careful if you decide to go on them.

    We work hard to keep our reports current.
    Much of our grooming is performed by volunteers, and their reports help to complete our information.
