Yesterday the now was damp so we restricted grooming to just rolling the snow. Now that temps have dropped and the snow has set up we are out grooming with tiller and tenderizer. Skiers will be impressed with our conditions. Though we will be opening more trails today. We will be grooming for quality over quantity first today.

Grooming first on: Waterfall Trail, Experimental Forest Trail, East Albany Brook Trail, Lower Fields, trail #11 and our scenic and simple Saco River Trails. We also expect to groom Yates Farm later today.
