We received another half inch of snow last night, which continues to add to and improve the snow base on the ski trails. Tractor Mike worked all day spreading snow along the John Deere loop yesterday, and Ginzu snow combed it last night to smooth it out. He will continue spreading snow today, and Groomer Butch will snow comb the John Deere loop again this morning. More snow is also on the way today, Saturday and Sunday! The rest of the trails are getting better, but with icy and bare spots, they should still be used for snow-shoeing only. For those who want to venture off the John Deere Trail, we are still offering FREE SNOW SHOE RENTALS on the trails today!

Forecast:

Today: Snow will taper off and end this morning but skies will remain cloudy this afternoon. Morning high of 26F with temps falling to near 10. Winds NW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of snow 90%. About one inch of snow expected.
