Took advantage of yesterday's warm weather to slap a new Crabbe Sticker on the car. We had a perfectly sunny warm day until about 4pm yesterday, then clouds rolled in and things got dark. Some light r**n overnight and before dawn things were below freezing again. At 7am, there were flurries in the air and when the lifts started turning it was snowing pretty hard. Conditions overnight were too soft and wet to groom, temps have dropped since then and the snow is pretty firm. Look for conditions to be hard until we get a bunch of new snow. Our crews will be out tonight slow tilling our groomed trails in an effort to try to soften things up. No worres, there's a huge amount of snow at Crabbe Mountain. There's even some snow in the forecast early this week. Let's hope it's a big one! - SB
