Good afternoon all..what a wet weekend we just had. We registered nearly 1.5" of liquid in our gauge here at the shop over the last 5 days. Granted some of that was snow..the fact that it was warm enough to get a reading is crazy for mid February. The snow settled out on the course and we went from 16-30" on the course to as little as 6" and as much 24" in spots. Even have some puddles in random areas. We are getting into the time of the year when it warms during the day and freezes every night, so the snow goes from bullet proof in the morning to soft in the afternoon.(freeze/thaw cycle).
We are digging pits today on the greens to monitor the moisure/ice situation after so much rain. The track will not get groomed again until we get another snow event..perhaps mid week. It is in decent shap right now, again, hard in the morning and soft in the afternoon. There are at least 7 moose on or around the course. I have seen 3 this morning just in my travels around to the greens. There is a mom and yearling that were on the east end of the property yesterday and momma is protective so keep your distance if you encounter any wildlife. Have a great day.
