After a light dusting of snow yesterday, and cold temps overnight, Groomer Mike was able to snow comb Rolling Hills, Trappers cabin, Mackinaw Cut and Wild Turkey. Tall Pines and Adventure need a little more time to freeze back up. Expect many great stretches, occasional crusty spots, bits of debris from the wind and possibly some damp spots in the lower areas. Classic tracks are a bit glazed over, but with some fresh snow in them, so they’re pretty decent, all things considered! Please be warned that Manitou has some large ruts crossing the trail at the powerlines that need to be traversed with care. The cafe is open and there are lots of new clothing markdowns! Come ski with us!
