Entire trail was groomed with the five bladed groomer, 4 passes up
and down this afternoon. Several weeks without snow plus strong
winds had deposited a lot of trash (pine needles, bark, and twigs) on
the trail--blading helped to disperse it and grind it into the snow,
and made a little more skiable. Lots of hardpack and icy sections--
it aint exactly great conditions right now! Pray for snow, this is
the driest El Nino we've ever seen!
Classic track pretty much gone, recommend skating.
