4" heavy dry snow/sleet overnight. Solid base and continuing to build up. Supposed to change to freezing drizzle, so won't groom until all that passes. But maybe some classic xc in the meantime.

Around the trails at dusk/dark. Rain from yesterday and last week has drained off and the remaining seeps on the upper segments have frozen up in the 20F weather. Should be okay for some snow.
Stretching and machines while girls and Kenny were in the pool; Kate taught Samantha flip turns.

Downhill with Kenny and the girls. Stayed on lower mountain where the conditions were okay. Samantha and Eliza ski really well and are ready for upper trails if the snow improves. Fewer people than expected for holiday week. Got a free ski pass for every adult ticket we bought.
Logged a couple hours, although we skied all day.
