Up Lucielle again today. Poured rain up to about the 6km mark or 1400m to be precise . Then complete whiteout. About 6-7"
of fresh snow on the trail and the hill. Cleared up later in the day for a couple hours and socked in again on our way down .

Thanks Barry. With the upcoming cooler temps and snow forecasted for the area, is it possible Renshaw grooming may be return this season?

Doubtful IMO. The last 4 kms of the trail is pretty skinny with lots of exposed, even with fresh snow I would think the poor groomer will be taking a beating with the gravel underneath. Most of the trail was in pretty good shape though, mother nature is just being a PITA this year. It rained on us both days. The 2 kms from the ticket booth to the parking lot is rough, should be melting out but slow going to get in there with a pick up (and tons of guys still need to learn how to park).

Thanks to Barry and Rod for keeping the trail groomed up to last week, it was the best it could be for what they had to work with.
