Alturas Trails still good
On Sunday, the 28th of March the temperature was estimated to be 28 degrees at 9:20 a.m. at the Alturas Lake ski area. Despite a relentless attack by the sun, 17 kilometers of trails are still all intact and continuous with skating and trail touring rated very good. Classic tracks extend to the lake and Over the Hill but are still only rated o.k. at best. It is now apparent that if new snow does not arrive soon, the trails will be retaken by tree wells, sagebrush, stump tops, boulders, dirt patches and fallen trees, He who hesitates may lose a chance to ski these trails one last time, while swift and resolute action may lead to a successful ski adventure.
