Thursday 6 PM

Crasher ran a Pisten Bully on tamarack and Ridge Runner (skate) and Sno cross groomed all the single tracks, Wide Track ran the skate lanes on combis. Sno Cross told Pig Heart to sit on the porch. It wasn’t the first time and it is not the last. I was sad the first few times but I understand it is time to share the grooming management/leadership with a younger person as I age and…and spend more time at medical appointments. what’s important for the skiers to note is that the ABR Trails Foundation will and is able to continue its hi level of grooming into the future. 3 of us will be back out grooming in the AM.
