The ski trails in the Sawtooth Valley this weekend should be pretty good but very cold. At 11 a.m. on Saturday the temperature was almost up to zero degrees. Grooming last took place at Alturas on Friday with excellent results and will be touched up again Saturday afternoon. Park Creek was groomed around Wednesday and should still be pretty decent.
Next weekend we will be celebrating the 20th incarnation of the Sawtooth Ski FestIval with a Chili feed and poker run at Park Creek from 11 – 1 on Saturday. On Sunday from 11 – 3, enjoy the ever popular Soup Kitchen and, weather permitting, live music from the Pesky Grape Seeds.
