Snowdate 01272010 :(
Wednesday, January 27th, 2010OK well we weathered the January thaw quite well. The trails are bullet proof right now. Desperately in need of new snow. Cover is good and have received a dusting of snow. How is the skiing? I would assume it is rough. Snow in the forecast. I have not been out due to hard conditions.

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010Well, I always seem to favor the skiers. Cause I am one. Here is a few trails to snowshoe on. They can use the packing of snow. Please remember to stay off the ski trail.
