On the mountain today to check snow conditions and the grooming shed. Sunshine and blue sky 32 degrees at 9am. There is now only 12 inches of snow at the grooming shed as during the day the temperature and sunshine melt the snow. The 64 rd and 31 rd are still plowed and bare in places and need snow to cover the pavement. Even though December 1 is tomorrow there is not enough snow to groom at this time and it doesn’t look like there will be for another week or more. The inversion continues this week with warm temps in the mountains above the fog and cold temps below and freezing fog at times. Some rain is in the forecast on the mountain for mid-week and snow showers by the weekend.
Due to lack of snow the loggers may still be hauling logs this week so be careful on the plowed roads. The new snowmobile trail map is not done yet as I am still trying to get enough advertising to pay for the paper and printing costs. I hope to have it ready to print by the end of this week and out to distribute by the middle of December.
