Well we keep getting snow, rather cold but looking to warm up a bit this week accompanied by more snow. Renshaw was groomed Sunday for Monday morning and hasn't had any riders on it as of yesterday, Lucille and Belle will be groomed during the week, should be a pretty nice one! I hope everyone has lots of fun in the new snow!

Is Renshaw groomed on a schedule or just when needed? I am coming with a group of 7 or 8 guys on friday and we were just wondering if it would be freshly groomed or not? Thanks

Renshaw, and the other hills are done on an as needed basis, usually it is groomed for friday morning but it depends on the number of riders, for instance Renshaw was groomed on Sunday night, no one rode monday and only 5 rode today so it will not be groomed tonight. Renshaw is always groomed at somepoint during the weekend however with low numbers I cannot guarantee it will be groomed for Friday morning.

Barry,

Was it a stock machine or a turbo?
I heard from some yamaha owners that those engines last forever!!

I really need to find a good paying Monday to Friday job so that I can quit the oilpatch with the hopes of getting out to enjoy winter.
