Steve and I were able to get all the trails packed with the flat drag. With how soft it is and warming temps this afternoon, we will probably wait until tomorrow am to finish groom some of the trails. Good luck at the Birkie, otherwise if you are looking to ski tomorrow, we should have some of the trails fully groomed by then.

Bill and Steve got all the trails packed this morning. Bob and I worked on grooming, and got the core trails groomed and tracked, including: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Seagull Connector, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Classic, and Sugarbush Dog Trail. With about 12 inches of new snow in 24 hours, and 4-6 inches more at the beginning of this system, the trails were still a bit soft after this grooming. Hopefully the cool temps overnight will help firm things up.

Steve and I groomed this morning, hopefully it was cool enough, it was right on the edge. We groomed and tracked: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Seagull Connector, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Classic, Oppedahl's and the Sugarbush Dog Trail. Looked to come out nicely.

Steve got out and regroomed the skate lanes of: Anchor, Seagull, Jolly Long, Roller Coaster, and Sugarbush Dog Road. The tracks looked pretty solid yet, so we decided to leave them. Should be good skiing, come check out the trails.

Bob and I groomed and tracked: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Seagull Connector, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Classic, Sugarbush Dog Trail, and Oppedahl's. Bill was heading out this afternoon to finish Raven, Deerpath and Black Bear. Conditions looked very good to excellent. With less wind and warmer temps, get out and enjoy.

Steve and I groomed and tracked: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Seagull Connector, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Classic, Sugarbush Dog Trail, Birch Hill and Oppedahl's. Seemed to come out nicely, other than it was still windy so a bit of drifting here and there.

Today we groomed and tracked: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Classic - just the lollypop section, Sugarbush Dog Trail, Birch Hill, and Oppedahl's. Most places it came out really nice, give it a very good rating.

Indeed the new snow made things very fun. With temps in the teens the tracks were good for kick and glide. Skate deck had been snowed over but it was light enough to make for good skating as well. All in all worth the drive from brown ground Dane County.

The good news this morning is there was probably a little more than 2 inches of new snow on the trails. Steve was able to do the skate lanes of Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, and Rollercoaster. I tracked Raven, Deerpath, Black Bear, and Sugarbush Classic in from Deerpath.

We were able to groom and track: Anchor, Jolly Long, Seagull, Seagull Connector, Rollercoaster, Telford, Sugarbush Class, Birch Hill, and the Sugarbush Dog Trail. The skating came out very good to excellent. The classic tracks came out will in 90-95% of the groomed areas, there were a few spots under evergreens that were harder to get a decent track set. The skiers I met were pleasantly surprised by how good the conditions were.
