On the day before Christmas, all trails at Alturas Lake were rolled, through 6 or more inches of new snow. Expect soft trails. At Park Creek, famous former groomer Thaddeus Maximus has volunteered to repack lost trails on Christmas Day. Sorry, but at best you can expect primitive snowmobile tracked trails.

Park Creek hit with double whammy…. Blowing snow covers all trails as groomer falls sick…. Hoping for a speedy recovery..
At Alturas, all trails packed out on Thursday with more grooming Friday.

On Tuesday, all trails east of Alturas Lake Creek were ginzu groomed for skate and classic and looked fabulous. At Park Creek, a badly stuck snowmobile groomer was freed from winter’s grip on a steep snowy hill and returned to service. Grooming there on Wednesday.

On Saturday, all trails to the east of Alturas lake creek were groomed with the Ginzu groomer. The trail to the lake from the bridge to the lake was double rolled. At Park Creek, Camus and Shooting Star were groomed.
On Sunday, blowing wet snow ruled all open meadow areas at both ski areas.
On Monday grooming was scheduled for Alturas trails. ‘
