Less than a week...............

Five days and the trails open for the season.  Ten day forecast it looking good and unless it really changes, we'll have riding on Snodeo this year again.   This week is going to be a good test run for one of the new cams I'm using.

Getting ready...............

The snow started for the season. So, I figured I'd get started also.  Plus, my old computer died and with it all the old programs I had gotten accustomed to.  No better time than now to figure out the new system.

First of the season.................

Got the first sticking snow of the season.  You'll see in the radar image that it was coming off of the lake. Cross your fingers that this is the beginning of a great sledding season.

Just for the fun of it I looked back over past years of posts and here is what I found. 2024 first sticking snow Nov. 12th.  2023 Nov. 1st. 2022 Nov. 16th.

First Frost................

 We had some frost this morning. But it didn't stick around long.
