ski groomer

Trail surface machine

A ski groomer is a tracked vehicle that prepares snow surfaces at ski resorts, compacting powder and smoothing out moguls to create uniform runs.

The term also refers to the person who operates such a machine, typically working overnight so slopes are fresh by morning: The ski groomers finished around 4 a.m.
