BMaybe the white pages we were seeing was for the snow we're getting right now. Calling for 20-25cm by tomorrow. That'll make the trails all nice!

BYep, that sounds about right but modern sleds are better, albeit more complicated when they do break. Went for a quick ride on the trails. A bit rough as we need more snow for proper grooming...
