The new snow that fell on Monday night rejuvenated trails at Alturas Lake by adding a little needed softening to the mix. Trail grooming took place on Monday,Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and is scheduled for Friday and Saturday. Trails have been skiing great. Bouts of wind have filled in some classic tracks in open meadows at times and pushed little snow drifts onto skate lanes but generally trails are looking very good. Some equipment repairs went pretty well so the ginzu groomer was out of service for less than 24 hours after a broken weld and torn cables shut it down late on Wednesday. Ski festival posters went out on Wednesday to announce the two outdoor events. Sorry, no indoor dinner and silent auction on Saturday night due to paaandemic angst.
Added news…. At Park Creek, a big loop consisting of Shooting Star, Camas and Skyrocket was groomed on Friday.
