Grooming Mike chewing up the glaze!

After the warmup yesterday, things cooled back down overnight and the grooming team is out there this morning scraping up some of the glazed over sections. Some areas in the shade are still quite nice, but there are also some slick sections out there that would respond well to metal edge skis. Looks like snow Friday morning, so we should have nice skiing this weekend!
