Got 4-6 inches of new snow last Sunday night before it turned cold. Packed and groomed on Monday and groomed and set track today, Friday. Lots of snow; deer and otter have been on the trail. Prelude Loops and Lake Loop groomed and track set to H Junction. Haven't had time to pack the trail beyond H junction so Tower End is not groomed. Should be good skiing. 6 K of trail open.

We got 8 inches of new snow at Blueberry since Monday. Prelude Loops packed and groomed and classic track set on Tuesday, Lake Loop to H junction packed and groomed on Wednesday. Tower end trails still need to be packed and groomed. Groomed trails should firm up with the predicted cold temps. About 6 kilometers of trail are groomed.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
Packed/combed from Chasewood P-lot to Red Pine Jct to include: Lake Loop, Prelude (outer and inner trails), Skate and Classic trails near Red Pine Jct and Judy's Hill to Lower Jct. No track set, firming up a good base for now. Trails are not terrible but grooves in the snow are common, use caution. Tower end has been packed only, not combed or groomed yet.

Morning
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Rock skis ]
Groomed from Chasewood parking lot to Red Pine Jct (skate and classic trail) and Prelude trails. Track set. Snow conditions pretty good, some spots with grass sticking up. ** CAUTION ** The metal culvert on the outer loop of the Prelude, which is fairly close to the parking lot, is exposed. I would not ski across it... stop and step over it.

Packed / combed from Chasewood Parking Lot to Red Pine Jct (Lake Loop and Prelude). Trails are able to be skied on but no track set. Trails mostly covered with snow but I would still use rock or B skis.
