Yeah winter gets tough but some people even play in the deepest snow. Once it sets up the discs stay right on top. This year there have only been a handful of snowy days, but that is very unusual. Try Dayton if your up here in winter. That was a misunderstanding about tree removal. Rocks get thrown up against trees so the ROCKS can be collected and wheelbarrowed off the course, not the trees. Only dead trees and branches will be removed from here on out. I'm sure that was me you talked to. Thanks for writing back. Andy PS. We were the only mountain course I know of to shovel all 18 tees plus some paths after every storm this year.
