They did open that route on Tuesday but it really isn't a trail.  it needs to be cleared out more before it is a real trail. They would have needed more patrollers to have tried to keep it closed on Tuesday.  It was Closed this past Saturday (There are a lot more patrollers on the weekend).
The trails where great on Saturday also (something having to do with getting another foot of snow Friday night ;-)   Our Saturday morning Sled training ended up being virtual sled training in the trees & bumps (just don't tell our patrol Director that)   :-)
