Friday Grooming Schedule

We had better plan on an 8:00 start with the forecast of an overnight low of 18F and a high tomorrow of 33F. Today it's already 36F at 11:00 here at Jerry Creek. Paul is taking a day off, so we need a Beast driver.

Pete Kurtz from Sven's in Anaconda called late Sunday afternoon to report a propane leak at the Warming Hut. Paul went up and shut off the gas at the bottle that night and Monday I picked up a new regulator and installed it Tuesday. Things appeared to be leak-free. I left the pilot on so it will be interesting to see if the Thursday night crew find it still on.
