Decided it is best to use both groomers today!

Not a lot snow. Some skate trails groomed.

12/17/2021

 
A big storm came through the other day and our volunteers were busy yesterday clearing trees and down branches and twigs.  Today they took a lap on the groomers.  The conditions are not ideal but they are skiable.  There are still wet areas, grassy spots and lots of twigs and sticks.  
The groomed loop is groomed for skate only. Conditions did not allow for setting classic tracks. 
The groomed loop is Abbey Road to Northern Lights to Seagull to the upper branch of Anchor (powerline) and down rollercoaster.
