MILAN — The sun is setting as Peter Higbee heads out to groom the approximately 9 miles of cross-country ski trails the Nansen Ski Club maintains at Milan Hill State Park. Driving the club’s 2002 Bombardier groomer, Higbee takes a Berlin Sun reporter along for part of the evening’s work.

Before going out, Higbee and Shawn Marquis spend about 30 minutes checking over the groomer, making small repairs, filling the diesel fuel tank, and allowing the vehicle to warm up.
