Sad it is going to be above freezing all next week.

we have such a good ice base...it will be fine....the only thing that will kill it is RAIN...freezing rain or sleet is fine...just no rain.

Also, the main factor with temperature isn't the high's but low's at night. I've ridden three days in a row before with temps hitting 50. The key was how cold it got at night. All three nights it hit temps in the single-digits and teens in the woods. By the time it hit 50, it was late afternoon and the woods never really got above 40 and as soon as it got dark again it was back below freezing. What you want to look for with temperatures is how warm it stays over night. If the highs are in the 40's and the lows never get below freezing you might be in trouble. Looks like most days the next week or so are going to freeze back down at night. That is huge.
