2/7 Grooming Report

February 7, 2020

Weather report and grooming plan for this weekend

Conditions have been pretty nice lately and this latest storm is bringing in some more snow to help freshen things up. We received about 3" of snow yesterday and currently there is a pretty good glazing of ice on top of the snowpack. It looks like the snow changeover should occur around 10-12pm today but may mix with sleet for some time. As the heavier precip advances, we’ll start to see more snow work in with and additional 4-8". Trails will be soft until they are properly packed and have had time to set up. Please remember to keep an eye out for where fat bikes are restricted. There are signs on the trails in the appropriate locations and if you have any questions please stop in to the Winter Welcome Center.

GROOMING
The groomers were out yesterday and will be out again today and this evening. The trails should set up nicely overnight on Saturday as the temps drop. There will be gusty winds on the backside of the storm so there may be some drifting snow until the grooming crew has the chance to knock out the drifts.

THANK YOU LANDOWNERS!
Vermont State Treasurer, Mike Pieciak, speaks at the 2025 Outdoor Recreation Day at the Statehouse
By Abby Long February 13, 2025
KT is taking action—on the trails and in the Statehouse! This 2025 Legislative Session, KT is teaming up with other amazing trail organizations through the Vermont Trails & Greenway Council, to advocate for H.147 a bill to establish the Recreational Trails Compensation Study. Why does this matter? Vermont’s outdoor recreation economy generates $2.1B annually, nearly 5% of the state’s GDP, that's 2nd in the nation after Hawaii (Go VT!) KT alone drives $10M in economic impact annually. Therefore, the state must recognize and incentivize these generous private landowners, including the 106 who make KT possible and allow public access to trails.
