Monday Haiku:
Sunny and bright day,
Call in well to go skiing,
We’ll write you a note.
Cold this again this morning. These cold nights are helping keep the snow around. Blue wax and SPF 30+ all day for skate and classic. We groomed a skate lane refresh on the 3km Community Loop, the 5km “Pond Loop” and Armstrong last night. We have established classic track on almost all of the 3km and the 5km The tracks are cold and glazed this morning for the start of your ski day.
Trail areas will be starting to transform and melt slightly in the afternoon. Ski before late afternoon if at all possible. Armstrong is packed and OPEN but thin and exposed in a couple areas still. Ski with caution and awareness.
Please ski alertly in the corners, crossing cart paths and near the trees as the trail remains thin in a couple areas. There are unmarked hazards here and there and the forecast afternoon heat will start to deteriorate exposed parts of the track. The newly raised golf cart paths are unavoidable and we’re working to keep them hidden. The Farm and Dog Loop ski trails remain closed for right now.
We are OPEN 9-5 today offering lessons, rentals of skis and snowshoes. Drop in the shop, purchase your trail pass and give us a big smile on the way out to ski! Keep those snow dances going. It will be a lovely sunny day for skiing, bundle up early, peel off layers later and go play on the snow! The snow bunnies will definitely be out enjoying the sunshine today.
