The entire trail was compacted with a roller. Welch to Cannon Falls is groomed for both traditional and skate skiing. The skate lane might be a bit soft. Grooming plans: Welch to Red Wing will be groomed on Friday.

Cannon Falls to Red Wing was groomed and tracked for both skate skiing and traditional skiing. Classic track is excellent, skate skiing is good coverage, soft, but should be firming up with the colder weather. Please check our website for trail sections open for cross country skiing, hiking and fat tire biking.

Skied 2 mile section west from Sunset Trail. Given weather trail was in good condition. 100 per cent coverage. Trail had been packed and groomed. Shallow classic track. High 30's. Only one other skater had skied the trail before me. His or her tracks and to a lesser extent mine were the only rutting evident. Lesser sun exposed portions of the trail that had not gone thru thaw freeze cycle was. soft and slow. More sun-exposed that had refrozen was crusty and faster but still strenuous to skate. Went faster on my return with the downhill slope helping me. Used FastWax Yellow LF.
