Video of Winching on Saturday Grooming

Gary said that he groomed all of our trails except the trail coming out of the Notch Road Parking Lot. That short trail was groomed really thin on the steep section and rocks were poking up so we thought that leaving the snow coverage on it was the way to go. If there is snow left on …
