We skied up to Blueberry Hill today, starting with Boulton and Fox Creeks trails, and ending with Moraine.

Those three trails amounts to about 6km, and I would guess that over 40% of the distance revealed extensive snow shovelling of snow from the sides onto the main trail - which of course was then groomed with skidoo and track setter.

That's 3 to 4 km of shovelling!! People often assume that groomers just sit on their machines - but “grooming” can be really hard work at times.
