Training This Week: March 15 to 21

Day to Day!

As the warm weather is upon us, the snow is rapidly diminishing and trail conditions are deteriorating. Our groomers will continue to groom as long as we have suitable snow and the trails hold up. At this point we are calling it, “Day to Day!” Meaning we will take it one day at a time. As of Sunday we still have suitable snow and given that Monday will be a bit cooler, Tuesday is highly likely. But as for the rest of the week? Stay tuned.
