I have skied the Ravine for 40 years. We have held many high school races there. The Washington Cty Park System has completely revamped the entire trail system. Quite honestly, this is without question the finest Nordic ski trail system in the metro. Today's conditions were so good, it would rival traveling out west to ski. PistonBully groomed - fresh tracks and immaculate wide skating lanes - It doesn't get any better. Nobody knows about this park, better get there soon. I'd fly to ski these conditions!

Trailed was groomed. No debris found on the outer loop deck. A little soft, but worth the extra effort on such a beautiful day.

Skied with headlight. Packed, no tracks set. Two inches of fluff on top. Decently fast considering new snow. Nice and hard under the fluff. More deer tracks then ski tracks.
