Thank you Trail Builders: Thank you Trail Builders: Today’s report is brought to you by Rich Cooley. Rich is not only a Trail Builder but also a Silver Sponsor. He has contributed a significant sum to support our trails. Without folks like Rich we would not be able to enjoy the great skiing we have come to expect. So, if you see him, say thanks.

As always, your feedback is appreciated. Send in pictures and you too can get your K marker moved to the front of the line.
Saux Head: Sunday morning we groomed the skate lanes and track set all trails. Skiing is excellent on all trails.
Fit Strip: Trails are groomed about once per week.
Big Bay Pathway: Too little snow in the woods so trails are closed. The Big Bay Trails are groomed for classic skiing and are through the rugged hills south of Big Bay. They are spectacular but need ample snow to cover the rugged terrain. We groom as weather permits so think cold and snow. Trails are just off Co Rd 550 in Big Bay.
Way Too Long Grooming Report: Today’s bluster weather would play havoc on trails less well forested. We are so blessed to have dozens of k fully protected by mature mixed hard and softwood forest. Expect drifting across the power line crossing. So, put on your favorite concrete chapeau and get out there.
Too Long To Read Report:
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
The great grooming report writer Robert Frost penned this iconic verse almost 100 years ago and today for the first time it is in the public domain; a fitting day given our weather. His recorded reading is hauntingly beautiful. In another 20 or 30 years (or 50, I don’t know. It is way too complex and always consult competent IP counsel on such matters) I will be able to enlighten you with the great grooming report writer, Mike Royko’s advice on dealing with a hangover. In the mean time, please look it up; it is hilarious. For now, I will stick with the new items in the public domain. I could sing you The Charleston but you both know I can’t sing. So, I’ll just tell you that, “Yes, we have no bananas today.” so I’m going skiing.
