Got up there with Nick Piazza, a club member and new groomer, and found hip-deep
snow (more than two feet). It took quite a while to dig the shed out, then dig
and tack a path out to the Camp May road, saw a couple of trees that were down
and now buried, etc. Everything just took a huge amount of time, so not a whole
lot got packed.
We attempted to go pack the trails with the machines (nothing in tow), but just
submarined, even with our "fastest" snowmobile. The snowmobile got stuck 7
times in one mile! So, after a long time spent digging out, we opted to head
back and hope that some folks would go out on backcountry skis and snowshoes.
It's that deep. We only made it around the TJ's loop once with a snowmobile and
Kermit. Nothing else got a pass -- we were first tracks on everything around
noon (no one had skied up beyond that).
With some ski and snowshoe traffic, and some settling, it'll be passable.
