Sorry, I just don't like when some people tell others how to ride. If you want the groomed trails, get out after the groomer, if not, deal with it.
FWIW, I went out this year and made first tracks after it was groomed all the way up to Mt. Shaw. We rode fast, but didn't ruin the trails. I know this because when we came back down, it was the exact same as when we went up. Just my $.02

Get a clue shreddy....as someone with hundreds of volunteer hours grooming I can tell you that the snow is at it's softest right after being groomed. Going out after they are groomed does the most damage because the snow has not setup(they take several hours to setup after being groomed). That's why we try to go late at night when the trails hopefully won't see any traffic while they are fragile and soft from being freshly groomed.
