I didn't get out of my truck to check the surface, was -3 with a weird warm mist coming down not freezing so it was softening the snow. The fresh snow in my driveway was still soft and bit heavy. Should be in fine shape by the weekend with more snow coming and temps dropping tomorrow. We'll see a lot more open in this neck of the woods Fri/Sat.  

Yellow back on the map around penetang/midland areas. That didn’t take long  

This is awesome news for the area sledders. Kudos to everyone involved! As to Stoney's question, it is not unusual to have discussions with landowners prior to getting MOU's signed and planning work done. Sometimes it takes more than one visit or call before the papers get signed. As well, it would be a lot of work wasted to put the cart before the horse so to speak.

This looks like good news.  

How hard is it?  There lubrication there without scratchers?
