Weekend schedule

The forecast looks like a repeat of last week. The temp is supposed to rise to 36 overnight, so we may be skunked for tomorrow. Dave has a crew going up tonight; hopefully they can get something done before the warm-up.

All of the machines are fueled and ready to go. I don't know if anybody has been watching the injection oil on the Skandic. I believe we started the season with the last of the Bombardier non-synthetic. It would probably be best to let the reservoir go nearly empty before switching to the synthetic. There is a gallon of the Wally brand in the warming hut.

The Bitterroot Alpine II is still acting up when it gets warm. We took the cowl off to help, but it still seems to vapor lock.

The brake is fixed on #3 Alpine II.

Mark Switek won't be available until after Sunday.
