Got back out for one last day. The park was in better shape than it was last Tuesday. App builds a 90 ft long pond thats about 2-3 feet deep in the middle for the last day of the season. I determined it to be too long for my old narrow groomers, but that will change next season. going from 69 underfoot to 84. Tom got it done with a very impressive effort. One of the few that made it all the way across.

Look for me on these next season:





With the movable jester in case I need to get back to Hawksnest for a powder day next year:





Last TR until next season, its been a good one

Yeah, it was a good way to close out the season. Got some turns in and met Tom and jamsandwich. Weather was cloudy but I never did get rained on Sat or Sun. There were some pretty funny crashes on the pond skim. Hated to see it end but only 8 months to go!
