Morning
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Rock skis ]
Trails in the woods are a block of ice and dangerous. Golf course could be crust cruised. We cannot groom until we get more snow.

Evening
Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
Skated all trails at Hixon, including golf course. Despite temperature above freezing during the day, the cold snow remained a firm, fast, boilerplate skate deck. Classic tracks present, but are hard, glazed over and very shallow in a number of spots especially on the golf course. Some thin spots, dirt and sticks, but mostly avoidable. Skied at night with headlamp, so used B skis, but thin spots and sticks probably avoidable during daylight hours.

Morning
Firsthand: Freestyle Observation 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Brushed off the skis for the first time this morning. Skated the golf course. Very hard work with the trails having a couple inches of new powder on top and soft base, but ground is completely covered. Saw the groomers out starting to roll so should have firmer trails later on today. No groomed classic tracks set yet, however there are tracks from other skiers. Not perfect conditions but we still had fun out there.

Evening
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
Classic skied basically everything that was groomed. Lot of area rolled and in decent shape given we are dealing with only one snowfall. Some debris and thin coverage at times. Small section with track set through Hixon but none on the golf course. Skating on the golf course appeared to be good.
