Medicine Bow Nordic Ski Patrol
Patrol Log:  Sat. December 19, 2009:  D. Moncecchi, L. Moncecchi


On Saturday December 19th Dino, Lori and Nate and Ivy and Bodie skied the Pot Holes Trail.  There were 4 veh. at Green Rock and about 50 veh. with trailers up to GR (specifics logged on FS data sheet). We met two parties of 2, 1 when we arrived and 1 when we were leaving. Both went to the Libby Creek area to get some turns in, but wisely did not because of the obvious snow pack instability.  I mentioned Sally Creek and the PH Trail as good touring alternatives.  As reported earlier, there was breakable crust a few inches down with unconsolidated snow beneath it. Cold temperature will maintain this structure for some time.  Because of kid and dog issues a snow pit was not dug.
