On December 2nd, the 129th birthday of German expressionist artist Otto Dix, all trails at Alturas Lake except for Sheep Thrills were groomed. In addition to smooth skate lanes, classic tracks were added to South Loop, Over the Hill, and most of the Trail to the Lake. For the low amount of snow available to push about, trails looked remarkably good but trail edges are soft. At Park Creek some initial rough roll out of trails has begun.
