My apologies for the way off glide scale yesterday- it was actually quite temperate. If it didn’t freeze up the hill, things should be similarly slow this morning, although Karin reported the track was “fast” returning from the Moonlight Ski

Groomed but Zippy
Yesterday Bucky touched up all the trails and even popped over to Beech Hill. Tracks are in good shape but it did get above freezing yesterday, at least on sun exposed tracks, so it should be pretty zippy this morning,… -
Friday Forcast
Bucky is heading out shortly to clean things up. Given his 7 hour grueling day Wednesday (“Did you get stuck at all Bucky”? “Yes, so many times!”), this is a blessing. So yes, if you didn’t use that Gift Certificate… -
Sun and Splendour await
Bucky just left town and will be in the woods most of the morning as he will likely have to do 2 passes of everything to get at least a somewhat firm track. Grip should be great with Blue extra… -

Bucky has just left for his “Studio” in the Hills of Walkerland, there to create wondrous ski conditions. Glide will be a little zippy at 2.5-3/4 but the snow will be soft and the track good to very good. Most… -
Today’s Skiing Window
Likely later, once it is well above freezing will be less sticky, but also less grippy. With warm temps predicted for today Bucky is going to wait until tomorrow to groom as there looks to be several days of below…
