No New Snow but Cooler

Good Morning it's 27 degrees and snowing lightly but no new snow overnight, so now the blue skies have been replaced with snowy skies and supposed to get colder tonight finally...This can make things interesting...Had lots of sledders up here yesterday enjoying the bluebird day and playing in the POW so even though the road isn't groomed it's pretty well packed from the sledders and not much snow expected today and supposed to clear tomorrow...Get out and enjoy the snow it does a body good...Peace

30 Degrees and 5" of POW

Good Morning it's 30 degrees and another 5" of POW here in Paradise...The trail was groomed on Sat night and has had about 20" of new POW on top of that...Yesterday only saw 6 sledders out this far and they report the road is great nice and smooth with no traffic, they made first tracks...If your still on holiday this is a great day to get out and enjoy the wonderful playground, can even see the sky and surrounding mountains, get out and enjoy it does a body good...Peace

15" of New POW

Good Morning it's 30 degrees and there is a new 15" of POW here this morning so many of the tracks from yesterday are lightly etched in the snow and it has just started snowing once again...we are showing 6.5' on the gauge and the houses are almost completely covered in their winter dress...Snow caves, no wonder it was so warm this morning...Get out and enjoy this snow it's not as wet as the snow from yesterday, make it a great day...Peace

2" of Snow and a Groomed trail

Good morning after hope you all had a blessed day, it's 33 degrees and we got 2 " of new snow yesterday with the warmer temps snow is settling some and it's a little wetter but not bad at all. Last night they groomed all the way to the TH turnaround which will make it easier for sledders to get here after a tree came down night before blocking the road...So for those of you who want to try out their new presents today is a good day to give it a shot so get out and enjoy...Based on what I'm seeing here off trail is forming a base but these warmer temps are effecting it a little but still not punchy like it's been...Peace

Merry Christmas got 11" to Play in...

Merry Christmas from Paradise, it's 33 degrees and we got 11" of POW since yesterday which brings us to over 6' of compacted snow on the ground here... This snow is a little wetter so you can almost make a snowball with it and there is at least a base forming now and even off trail only shin to knee deep instead of punching through to your chest...There is a bottom now but power is still your friend especially when playing off trail...

Peace, Bear, Lillie, Gizmo & I want to wish you all the very best for this holiday season filled with Peace, Love and Happiness...now get out and enjoy this snow...Peace

4" of POW

Good Morning it's 29 degrees and overnight we got 4" of new POW, the snow is starting to compact some and not quite as easy to punch through off trail...The trail to Trinity hasn't been groomed since last Wed night but there have been several sledders out to the trailhead turn around...Funny thing is that most of them had to be only trail riders because instead of using the entire road they make one track and everyone seems to use that one track...It's less than 1' on the trail so a nicer smoother run is to be had if not using the single track...That is one thing I have never understood but they will leave 3-5' snowbanks to make a single file trail instead of using the entire trail, if that  is all they are gonna do why groom as wide is my question...Get out and enjoy the snow it's not getting some base to it but up here could be 6-15" of new snow on top...Get out and enjoy it, if anyone is thinking of running up this way and wouldn't mind please stop by Midway and pick up my mail and some 1/2n1/2  it will be greatly appreciated...Peace

6" of baby fine POW

Good Morning it's 29 degrees and the days are getting longer now, we got a total of 6" yesterday of baby fine pow, but with the warmer temps it tries to make a snowball and better than it has been many of the bigger snow pillows formed after the rain have now been covered over pretty well, just be careful when getting off trail or off your sled you can end up chest deep in snow if not prepared and most of all know the conditions of where you are playing...Get out and enjoy the beautiful whiteness, have fun and remember power is your friend in deep soft snow...Peace

7" of New POW Overnight

Good Morning it's 28 degrees and overnight we got another 7" of POW and I do mean baby powder fine POW...For anyone wanting to get out and play in the snow today and especially sledders or snowshoers possibly if you come this direction and get off the trail remember Power is your friend, very easy to stick yourself  if not paying attention and stepping off your sled could put you chest deep in snow...Skies are gray and overcast but the snow is white and sticky...Get out and enjoy it today...Peace

2" of POW

Good Morning it's 27 degrees and snowing and overnight we got 2"  is all...Guess with it being holidays now and school out there will be more sledders out on the trails so be careful out there...Should be about 5-6" of snow on the trail since they groomed...Be safe off trail as it is still soft once you break through the crust about 15" deep and it's rather bottomless...so power is your friend...Enjoy the mountains and snow today...Peace

Only 4" of New POW

Good Morning it's 24 degrees and we got another 4" of baby fine POW. the rain from last week has put a crust about 1' deep and you can punch trough and be up to your waist or deeper very quick...If you are gonna get out and enjoy the beautiful snow be careful, if you get off trail remember Power is your friend, don't slow too much or you will be digging out alot...The road to Trinity was groomed on Thur morning and so it's nice having a little Pow as a cushion to run on...Get out and wake up still a little gray skies but not bad...Peace

3" of POW and colder temps finally

Good Morning it's 28 degrees and we got 3" yesterday so not much but some, the best thing is that after almost 10 days of night time temps around 33-34 and warmer days to boot it started getting cooler and supposed to stay colder with possible teens overnight...
The trail has been completely groomed to Trinity and it's a good thing as there were quite a number of trees across the road, that might explain why we haven't seen many sledders up this way last weekend or since...According to the groomers some were passable and really large tree has a cut around the end someone made but it wasn't something just anyone could do...In looking out right now I see that it's snowing lightly , so put on your boots and get that snow dance on...Peace

11" of POW Overnight

Good Morning it's 30 degrees finally and we got another 11" of POW, not what I expected as far as low temps go but better than 34 overnight, hopefully it will get colder and help set up the snow that has been rain soaked and build a base to grow from now...It's still snowing not as heavy as yesterday but still snowing non the less...Get out and enjoy the beautiful whiteness...Peace

Rain finally stopped and 1" of Snow

Good Morning it's 34 degrees and it finally stopped raining after raining since midnight Sunday which has compacted the snow we already had and now we are seeing snow once again and got 1" overnight...The forecast is for more snow and colder temps so put your dancing boots on and bring back the snow...Peace

Nothing New Overnight

Good Morning it's 34 degrees and no new snow overnight but since midnight Sunday we have gotten 3.2" of rain here @ Trinity which has turned the snow into big pillowy looking snow but at the same time it has settled it down now so this is now the base we were looking for now let it snow, so guess we need to do our snow dance today me and the dogs...Be safe out there...Peace

15" of Very Wet Snow

Good Morning it's 34 degrees and we got 15" of nice POW yesterday up until around 6pm and then it started warming up and turned to rain and now it's very wet snow...If you didn't get out and enjoy it yesterday when it was POW then you missed it because now it's gonna be sloppy and wet but still can be ridden you'll just get wet...I did get a report yesterday that there are a few trees down from Chikamin to Trinity most are small and can be gone over but one is very big but there is a trail around it or was yesterday...Be safe out there this needs a chance to set up some ...Trinity out...Peace

Another balmy morning and another 12" of POW

Good Morning it's 34 degrees and overnight we got another 12" of wetter snow yesterday, seems we are sitting right under the low pressure system...This morning it is snowing lightly but don't expect much today, not until tomorrow night possibly...If you haven't already get out and enjoy this beautiful whiteness it does a body good...Peace

Warmer Temps but 15" of POW Overnight

Good Morning it's 33 degrees and overnight we got another 15" of POW, took a bit of effort through thigh deep snow to clear the dish to get this out...This brings our total to just under 5' so far not bad for a month, not as good as some years but better than others...This doesn't look like it's done yet but with a forecast of 3-6" for yesterday I'd say they missed it some which isn't uncommon...Get out and enjoy the wonderful POW and get some face shots it'll do you some good...Peace

11" of POW Overnight

Good Morning it's 30 degrees and overnight we got 11" of fresh POW, the snow is still coming down but lightly now...For anyone that hasn't been out this way lately that is about 3' of new POW in the last week, and according to today the last time they groomed all the way here was Sat night, but will keep you informed...Get out and enjoy the POW it does a body good...Peace

Not Much to Report

Well good morning not much to report snow wise we have received a dusting each day for the last couple of days but not enough to measure...They road to Trinity was groomed on Sat night and there hasn't been much traffic out this way since, we are still holding at about 3' of snow here...If you get the chance get out and enjoy the snow it does a body good...Peace

12" More POWder

Good Morning it's 25 degrees and this morning we had another 12" of fresh POW  giving us almost 4' total now...Haven't been out to check to see if they have groomed out here yet, usually I'm the last place that they groom to, just depending on the snow down lower...Peace
