Four hours ago......

I started working on this over four hours ago and I'm just now getting it posted at 9pm.  Which is a good thing, because it means the phone is ringing and there are people in and out of the office.  Amazing how a little snow can change your day around.  We had snow in the air all day and we picked up another 4 or 5 inches.

Went out riding last night, did 65 miles and I'd give the Old Forge trails an overall good to fair.  Even the cut off trail from trail 1 to the Brantingham trail was good.  But the Brantingham trail wasn't anything to talk about last night.  But I did hear they groomed it today, good thing because it really needed it.

Wait and see.............

I don't know about you, but I always find it interesting to see what we really get compared to what is predicted.  A week ago they called for one to two feet and we got 6 inches.  Monday called for 5 to 8 inches and we got a foot plus.  So it's a wait and see game in my book.  Yesterday we had light snow all day and by this morning I'd say we got 3 to 4 inches.  Today we saw the sun most of the day and things look like a Christmas card around here now.  The snow stick out front is right at the one foot mark of settled down snow.

Do you hear it?

It's the sound of a fresh foot of lake effect and more to come this week .....it's time to ride!

Could of been worse.......

You'll see in the video that we got the R on Sunday.  But I'm happy to say it didn't wash everything away.  We still had a solid ice base in the driveway and I would say it was the same out on the trails.  So yes we took a step backwards from the R, but the lake effect today put us right back to rideable conditions and it looks like more to come this week.

Sorry again about the late post.  But with the power being out for 16 plus hours, the battery back ups just didn't cut it on the webcams. So I spent most of the morning getting everything back online and this afternoon plowing, snow blowing and getting the generator ready for the next outage.

We lost our power around 11am yesterday and it came back on sometime between 1 and 5 am this morning.  So it made it a little hard for me to keep you up to date on what the weather was doing yesterday.  I'll have a full report later on.  Now It's time to get everything back on line and the back up power ready for the next outage.

HOLY COW!!!  Take a look at Stillwater's cam.  They are on a different line and their cam is up.  Looks like close to a foot and still coming.

24 and 32 Hours........

Sorry about not getting a post up yesterday.  I got tied up with things around here and ran out of time.  We haven't seen that much R today and  I'd say the snow level has dropped about an inch so far.  Sled traffic has been next to nothing, with only a few giving it a try.  In the past 24 hours we've seen conditions go down hill and in a 32 hour period, Billy Boy put on 270 miles this week, amazing how fast things can change. Cross your fingers and hope we don't see all the R they are predicting.  Because if we do, we could be starting from zip again.
