December 4, 2018 Grooming Report;
Thank you Trail Builders: Today’s report is brought to you by Daniel and Constance Arnold. The Arnolds are feted at the 10k mark of the Noque’. Without folks like Daniel and Constance we would not be able to enjoy the great skiing we have come to expect. So, if you see Daniel or Constance please say thanks. If you have not done so, please renew your membership.
Forestville Real Grooming Report: Yesterday I failed to mention that Sunday night while the rest of us were snug in our beds Andy rolled 8”+ of new snow on the Noque’ and Animoosh to 17k and Chiwagi by pass, Muckwa and Migizi. This morning he rolled to the ponds and back and groomed skate lanes on the Noque’ to pines and Animoosh. The classic tracks were not reset but are skill skiable. Then he groomed and tracked migizi, muckwa, and chiwaji bypass.
As always, your feedback is appreciated.
Saux Head: Tim and John will roll as soon as weather permits.
Fit Strip: Tom will groom as soon as weather permits.
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: Calling an election too soon has been the undoing of many a grooming report writer so at least I am not alone. Monday morning after the western precincts and absentee ballots were counted it turns out the sisters of St. Bibiana were right. With over 8” of new snow on the trails in Forestville it must look like a winter scene on a movie set. So, 2018 will go down in history as the year of the St. Bibiana’s day storm after all. My apologies to all. If you see me on the trails I’ll be the one in the black goat hair shirt.
