Hard to tell.................

Most days I can give you a good estimate on how many people are in town by the traffic going to get gas.  But with Fastrac getting new pumps installed there was no sled traffic today.  NC Dave said he didn't see all that many sleds out and that's helping the groomers get things back into shape.  The snow we had today wasn't coming off of the lakes, it was coming out of the north by what I saw on the radar.

Old video refresher............

Three years ago I posted a video about getting around town on some of the back roads.  So I thought I'd repost it for anyone that may have any questions.  The road part starts 45 seconds into the video.

What can I say.....

Conditions aren't at their best after the big weekend, but the groomers are out fixing things up and there's no question that they are rideable.  You'll see in the video we got about 3 inches of snow over night, but we haven't seen any new snow during daylight hours.  This evening the temp has been dropping and there is light snow in the air at 6:30pm.

Two things.........

One, Fastrac has a sign up that they won't be selling gas on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.  It looks like they are unloading new pumps today.

The second things I keep forgetting to pass on is the pizza discount they have going.  For every pizza you buy you get 25 cents off per gallon of gas (up to 20 gals.) and it can be for more than one pizza. (not sure on the limit of pizzas) All you need to do is ask for your receipt and us it within a week of purchase.  They are also offering a cash discount of  7 cents during the week and 10 cents on Sunday.  Ask inside how to get the discount card.  Not allot, but a family of four sleds it could add up.

What's that saying?

Just like the trails, things have been busy around here today.  So I'm just a little behind schedule.   But better late than never......so here it is.

What a day !

This has been one of the busiest Saturday's I have ever seen over at the Fastrac.  Most days there is the morning rush and then in the late afternoon you see people filling back up after a day of riding.  But today it has been a constant flow almost all day. Funny what happens when lake effect gives the area rideable snow and it's a free weekend on top of that.

Above freezing..........

The temp went up to 37 today, but in some ways that is a good thing.  Because dry fluffy snow doesn't pack very well and today's temp put some moisture in the snow.  Yes it would of been nice, if it didn't happen just before a weekend.  But things don't always come together the way we would like them to.  The temp at 5:30pm is 31 and things should start to firm up.
