On Thursday, December 19th, a trail was groomed to Alturas Lake for the first time this season. It was not a blue jay day, but the temperatures had warmed somewhat and with more snow predicted overnight Davinius thought it was a good time to cross the bridge and break on through to the other side. He drove slowly and with some trepidation through the grey mist and the untracked snow. As always, he was fearful that something dreadful might happen. He might tip over or get stuck in a snowbank, miss a turn or lose his way. However, when he arrived at the lakeshore without incident and gazed out at the snow covered expanse, he realized that while he may have found the trail, he had lost himself instead. All that remained was the sound of the wind.
The Trail to the Lake was compacted with two passes of the snowmobile and then rolled one time. Over the Hill and South Loop were also rolled. Sheep Thrills got one snowmobile pass. Trails should be ok for flat tracking but are still a bit primitive for skating. There is not enough snow for directional signs yet.
