Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Classic skied the outer loop at Mukwonago today. The trail was well groomed, good deep tracks all the way around. The Mukwonago trail is particularly well designed for classic skiing as a good intermediate skier can stay in the tracks almost all the time, on the up hills or down. Great place to ski.

First time skiing this trail, a nice old school type trail. Grooming was average at best, but to be fair it look like quite a bit of damage and trail recovery is happening from the heavy snow from a few weeks ago. Our first trip here, it certainly won't be the last. The long loop is not tracked/dragged, apparently due to several large trees across the trail prohibiting groomers to get in.

I skate skied here for a few hours. Some wind had come through so there was some debris on the trails but the base was fantastic and overall it was some of the best skiing I've done in the last few years. Thanks groomers!

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
The 2.3 Km, 4.4 Km, and 7.5 Km loops were groomed and tracks reset today. The skate lane is very solid, and the tracks are shallow in places, but are solid with the cold temps. Expect to see some sticks, leaves, and pine needles on the snow surface. The 13.6 Km loop is currently not being groomed due to brush hanging over the trail and a couple of trees down. The Forest Service will be working on getting that loop open in the near future.

Good skiing. I used my best classic skis. There were occasional sticks but all obstacles were avoidable. I think the groomer has done an outstanding job with the trail. Classic tracks were deep and firm. Mukwonago is a gem. It's rustic and reminds me of the old days of classic on a relatively narrow rolling trail. Skate deck looked good too.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Rock skis ]
Mukwonago 2.3Km, 4.4 Km, and 7.5 Km loops were groomed today. The tracks set up very well with the colder temperatures. The skate deck on the 7.5Km loop is bumpy in places. Rock skis are recommended due to some sticks, leaves, and pine needles on the surface. The base is thin in a couple of areas, mostly in the pine tree stands. The 13.6 Km loop is not currently groomed due to trees and brush that came down 2 weeks ago when heavy snow was received. The outer loop should be cleared and ready for grooming in early January.

Mukwonago has gotten about 10-12 inches of snow in the last 2 weeks. The initial snow pushed a lot of brush and trees into the trail. Trail crews have been working diligently to remove the trees and brush. The 2.3 Km, 4.4 Km, and 7.5Km loops are cleared, rolled, groomed and tracks are set. The 16.6 Km loop still needs work before any grooming can happen. The open loops have a base of 5-6 inches. There are some areas that the base is thinner. The classic tracks set nicely today. There is some debris (sticks and leaves) on the groomed surface.
