Recent Mount Shark Grooming much appreciated. Former tracks holding up fairly well.

Discussion:

Arrived at 9:30 and -8 to a parking lot of perhaps ten cars. I like the new system of trail names and we quickly decided to avoid Ursa Major. There is a nice loop with Virgo, Pegasus, Hercules, and we exited by the bench buried in the snow and skied down to Watridge Lk junction. Back onto Hercules and Pegasus again and short Orion. While the snow had not been groomed heading up to the Heli pad, we took advantage of snowshoers' tracks (they thought Watridge lake was up there?) but snowplowing down that last hill was tough as the snow was heavier by 2pm.
-4 at completion. Smith-Dorrien a bit icy but had been gravelled. Looked like one end of Goat Creek parking lot had a couple of cars in it, and another black truck was needing to be pulled out at the other end. Goat Creek Closure is supposed to be until Dec 31st, so fingers crossed for easier access to Goat Creek.
Happy New Year everyone! And thank you Skierroger and to everyone for giving us timely reports.
