Break out the paddles; red alert. The rain is not helping at the ski area. We had to abort an attempt at grooming when we realized the snow was the consistency of a two foot deep bed of ball bearings. So the outermost ring of the Bauer Loops has been groomed, as well as the Rush Loop. It was on the Rush Loop the full weight of the folly in which we were engaged sunk in. I'll spare you the details, but suffice it to say we beat a hasty retreat for the exit.
We will most likely sit back a bit and assess the impact of the incoming weather system - which looks to be warm and wet. Very. Unless things cool off and firm up, grooming will take a brief siesta, unless otherwise notified via this highly questionable disseminator of information.
Peter and Phil put in 4 hours grooming (read: wrestling large, heavy hunks of steel and aluminum with sharp teeth, all while smiling and waving) before pulling the plug on the whole concept. Plus an hours worth of repair work yesterday to bring us up to a total of 5 volunteer hours for this entry.
