We were grooming non stop all weekend. We are not allowed to run the tractors more than 16 hours a day per the dnr.
This past weekend we ran them 22 hours out of the 24.

Last night we did not go out due to the extreme cold temps.
We planned to go out early this morning but the groomers are not starting.
They are plugged in but we are currently facing Fuel Gelling issues.

We are doing all we can. Tarps and Torpedo Heaters, Diesel 911, Etc.

We did get a solid 6″ of LES yesterday north of M28. We know this hit over towards MQT as well.
Regular grooming towards MQT was getting done this morning but the John Deere is throwing low fuel pressure codes.
The operator turned around just South of Christmas.

Our Fuel was supposed to be treated and we are discussing with our fuel supplier.

We all have full time jobs and volunteer to do this. We have guys out there working to resolve and get grooming.
