On Christmas Day, Santa stand-in Thaddeus Maximus helped save Park Creek trails from the continued onslaught of wind and snow during groomer Aaron’s sick leave. He packed Sego and Larkspur with the snowmobile and packed and rolled Lupen, Shooting Star and Camas. He has plans to do more thre on Sunday. Wind also blew through Alturas trails Saturday so grooming is planned there as well.

Merry Christmas…

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.

Trying to do our best…

The ski trails at Alturas Lake are looking almost like the real thing. After a grooming session on Thursday, the Trail to the Lake is still rough but suitable for touring. On the highway side of the creek, directional signs are up, the toilet has arrived, maps and doggie bags are available, and all trails have been rolled with a bit of nice corduroy on and some classic tracks. Achtung! Trails are still soft.
At Park Creek, Aaron has begun beating things into shape with a rough grooming of Shooting Star your best bet for a tour.
