Groomed Friday evening. We did not receive any new snow. Snow base is firm and rolling fast.

Groomed the tracks Friday afternoon to get it in shape for a weekend of activities. There has been a lot of oak leaves falling on the east side. Also, we have had a lot of hikers on the trail flattening out the tracks and with no new snow the tracks won’t be that great.
