[ Trails: Closed ]
It was good skiing this morning, but the afternoon sun left long stretches of grass in what were minimal conditions to begin with.

Morning
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Rock skis ]
CLCF Nordic is skiable. Fair to good overall conditions, very good skating in some parts. There are only two inches of snow, but Jerry packed it down. There are a few bare spots but easy to see. Other than the fist loop prior to Sleeping Dragon Rd., trails in the west woods have not been groomed.

Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
The skate skiing was very good this morning with complete coverage, but by 10 a.m. and with a lot of sunshine, it began to soften up. It should be fast skiing again late afternoon and tomorrow morning.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, B skis ]
The fields were groomed today for skate. They should set up overnight and provide good skiing for a couple of days. There is no porta-potty.

Pre warm-up: Got out early to check trail and found skiing to be remarkably good on sections that were groomed. Must be alert to icy spots and trail remains thin, but overall bonus skiing at this point. Thanks again Jerry!

Evening
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Rock skis ]
Skate lanes in the upper field were groomed. If we get good bonding tonight, they might be ok. Classic track had filled in with the half inch of snow we received, and are still intact. Watch out for icy patches underneath.

Trail will remain closed. Tried grooming, but there are a number of small ponds with thin ice on top and some thin areas where dirt is scraped up.

Morning
Observation 
[ Trails: Closed ]
Parking lot roped off and trails a thin yet fully covers sheet of icy hard pack. Given the top notch grooming this season, it might take a few inches to get back into condition. Let's stay off and do our snow dance!

Trails will be closed at noon today (Wednesday) until Friday morning. It is very much appreciated that people stay off the trails to improve the ability to bring them back to good skiing quality. Thank you.

[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Phenomenal! I believe Jerry is the best groomer in the state! The trail system was fast, very firm and fun. The skiing was little effort and the glide and speed were perfect. The prairies are in A+ shape and the woods are in A shape. I am a little greedy, so I am hoping for more snow next week, haha. Best the trails have been in over two years. Worth the cost of a season pass. Thank you so much for a perfect ski after work. Needed it big time.
