February 1st, 2018… it was 54 years ago today that the fab four had their first number one hit in the USA. On this day at Alturas Lake, all trails were looking good and skiing like a dream. Each day’s grooming improves upon the last… and   uh… Oh yeah, I want to hold your hand.

Blue Moon Grooming

Blue Moon Grooming

Although cooling temperatures still remained above freezing on Tuesday and wild winds pushed snow clouds across open meadows, grooming for the blue super moon eclipse took place at both Park Creek and Alturas Lake. Skiing should be pretty good at Park Creek where all trails were groomed for skating and old classic tracks remained serviceable. At Alturas, all trails to the east of the creek were regroomed for skate and new classic tracks were set Over the Hill and on the Lake Trail to the creek junction.
