Warm sticky snow clogs ski groomer!

On December 28th, Over the Hill. the Trail to the Lake as far as the bridge junction and South Loop were groomed at the Alturas Lake Ski Area . Temperatures in the high 30’s resulted in warm sticky snow that piled in glommy heaps in front of the ginzu groomer and an overheating snowmachine.  Although usually a passionate and dedicated groomer, old Davinius decided to leave his frustrating task behind for a day of sledding with the pretty girl from the village.  More grooming is scheduled for Saturday at Park Creek and Alturas.
