Trail updates

Trail passes are not required today as we cease grooming operations until we get more snow (maybe).  The warm wind yesterday melted a fair number of bare patches in both the Rendezvous and at Sun Mountain.  TThe first couple of miles of Cougar Bait are skiable and then a bit of a walk on dirt to get to better snow on Cow, Cedar Blue and Rendezvous Basin.  You will find similar patchy skiing at Sun Mtn. with areas where you will need to hike to the next better bit of skiing.  With last night's freezing temps, it may take a little longer for things to soften up this morning.  Fingers crossed that we get some new snow today to extend the season for those of us not ready to put our skiis away.  We are no longer grooming Winthrop and Mazama trails.
