1/22/10 -Friday- Update of today's post. Beautiful powder from 5 foot at Jonesville to 12 + feet at higher elevations. {{{BE SURE TO CARRY SHOVELS AND HAVE FRIENDS WITH YOU}} As can be seen the Warming Hut has its share of powder! The trails groomed nicely today. The 10 snowmobilers in front of me, all extreme powder riders, did the job. I could not have groomed today without them!!!!!!! The road from just past Butte Meadows (green gate) to the snowmobile park has not yet been cleared and --simply put-- cannot be used by vehicles and is now too dangerous for most snowmobilers. Needless to say the groomers will not be out tomorrow. Hopefully this section of road will be completed by tomorrow (Sat) night and/or the back trail from Butte Meadows to the Park will be opened tomorrow. Anyway we expect, one way or another, to be able to get to our engines at the snowmobile park Sunday morning and be grooming again. Humboldt road from HWY 32 through Butte Meadows and on to the green gate was in great shape and plowed down to the pavement --thank you Butte County Road Department!!!! Our friends on HWY 89 and HWY 36, look for the groomers Monday or Tuesday.
