We have some excellent news to report this evening. The Mad River Valley received steady snow showers all week long and the snow has piled up 12" or more at higher elevations in the mountains.
Doug Wilson went out grooming earlier today in the Log Job and reports that conditions were much better than he had expected. The groomed trails at higher elevations are powdery with a firm base underneath. Doug plans on going out again during the next couple of days and grooming the trails through Camel's Hump State Park.
Keep in mind that the snow is still too thin to groom in town and that getting up to the groomers may be a challenge. Be very careful as early season conditions do exist and you should expect open waterbars, exposed rocks, and icy corners.
There are rumors of a possible coastal storm early next week so keep thinking snow. The season is still young and if all goes well we will have a banner February and March.
