Freshly groomed this morning. Tracks were set another day. Lots of debris due to the wind. Soft snow but can feel the ice in some sections. Majority of the trails are open.

I skied the Ironwood and Lakeside trail loops this morning, and they were in fairly good condition. The classic tracks were intact, with a few icy spots and some thin spots, but overall they were in good condition. There is a large melted area in the Ironwood marsh, but is it possible to shuffle around that. It was nice to be out in the woods on a beautiful sunny morning!

All except Lower Ironwood were very good. Lower Ironwood particularly where it crossed the marsh was in poor condition. Classic track looked good. I used FastWax Blue LF recently buffed with fluoro paste. Lots of older classic skiers near dusk taking advantage of warmer temperatures before tomorrow's thaw. Fast conditions (and chasing the classic skier who passed me on the out leg) resulted in my fastest ski - 7 mph - of the year despite taking a side trip on the spur to the maintenance facility and slowing on hills on Lower Ironwood.

Skijored the multi-use trail today. It was absolutely perfect. Fresh corduroy, no bare spots, no icy spots. This was the best skiing I've had so far this year.

Skated Ironwood and Lake and the short easy loop. All with great coverage, a small amount of leaf debris but not bad. Overall good to very good condition. Classic tracks also looked good. Did not try the Lower Ironwood extension due to the Three Rivers report that it was in poor condition.

Very good conditions in the tracks tonight and not very many people out there. Kudos to the groomers for turning things around after the big thaw.

Cold and a bit slow using Polar Kick wax but good ski conditions on freshly groomed trails. The Ironwood trail was in very good shape with just a few stalks sticking up in the low marsh areas.

Conditions are excellent at Cleary for both skating and classic. The trail was being groomed at 9:30 this morning, but even beforehand the skate deck was flat and uniform across its width. The track was in fine shape also.

Good snow on all the trails except the Lower Ironwood trail. Lower Ironwood had a stretch after the swamp area with minimal snow coverage where the groomer mixed in a lot of debris. The dusting of fresh snow this morning was helping to cover up the leaves that are mixed into the base. If you skip the Lower Ironwood trail there shouldn't be anything that would damage your skis.

Skijored the multi-use trail at Cleary. It was in a lot better shape than I expected after the recent warm weather. There few a few spots that didn't have enough snow to cover the ice but most of the trail was in good shape. It's been rolled but did not have classic tracks set.
