Arrived in old 32 parking lot 2pm, it was snowing pretty good on the way up, they got a solid inch or two over freshly groomed trails. Skated using soft flex skis and they were good, wish I would have opted for a little colder wax job with the freshly turned over snow from grooming and new cold snow mixed in. Snow has covered up most of leaf litter. Trails are a little uneven in places. North end of trail has more snow than south. I did take cut off on north end as I was losing daylight. You could really tell the difference skiing on fresh snow over Ungroomed segment vs groomed. Should be good for the weekend.

The quad ran the main trail trying to break up and level the skate lane. Did not do the classic track. The track had quite a bit of debris. It was snowing. The new snow should cover some or most of the leaves.

Excellent conditions. Groomer was out while I skied so corduroy for the last 10Km. Beautiful and few skiers. Tracks were all set but lots of leaves so expect unexpected stops. Behind the groomer it was Hello V2.

Skated 6k-20k segments. Essentially full coverage. Just groomed this morning. Tracks not used but appeared very good. Skate deck was excellent, especially 16k-20k loop. Kudos to groomer. Put donations in donation box, maintenance creates overhead.

Very good conditions. Classic and skate skied everything between Old 32 and Sullivan Springs Road. Tracks are set throughout the network maintaining full to 50% depths. Skate deck is very solid, but could benefit from a grooming to level out ruts and create an edge. Worth the trip. Carpe Skiem.

Skate deck groomed throughout. Very rare dirt spots. Diagonal tracks looked deep and intact (but I skated). Much use over last weekend and will need re-grooming soon. Worth the drive.

Trails were in great shape for skate skiing. Piston Bully groomed. Very light rain from Friday night mixed in perfectly to make for perfect snow. I was pleasantly surprised how good the trail system was. Worth the drive from Green Bay. Classic tracks were also in very nice shape also.

Got on the trail at the golf course at about 2PM. Had a great time skiing (skating) the trail to Paya Lake Road and Back. The trails were groomed and a classic track was just being set! Looks like a great week of skiing ahead!

On the snow about noon, 18 degrees, no wind. Off the snow 3:10 pm, 22 degrees, no wind. The Piston bully was out leveling the trail and laying track. Track was excellent with some debris. Skate lane looked good to vary good early season. Snow was fast.

Awesome conditions, what a nice change from 48 hours earlier! Skated all segments west of Sullivan Springs Road. Full coverage, variable pole plant. Tracks set in the loops near the Old 32 Parking lot. I spoke with the groomer and tracks will be set throughout the network before the weekend. The hill loop near the golf course was spectacular. Carpe Skiem.
