On Wednesday, the 4th of February, Timinius had a successful grooming session on the Alturas Lake trails, pushing through several inches of new snow, laying down corduroy on all trails except for North Cabin and adding classic tracks on all but Sheep Thrills.  Stanley gals, who came out to ski and enjoy the fresh grooming, reported trails were a bit “sticky”.  With Thursday morning temperatures in Stanley reported to be an alarming 42 degrees at dawn and a storm watch in effect for Friday and Saturday predicting up to a foot and a half of snow, wet and sticky conditions might be expected to continue.
