I had one of the best days ever on the trails. Lots of snow and I didn't freeze my butt off. Temp peaked at 37 but felt like 27 is what my phone weather app said. I skied the Brown loop(so much snow) twice, took a break and then did the Green trail. A few twigs down and one bare spot on the south end hill near the small lake on the green trail, but all in all I was pleasantly surprised and wondered why so few people were there. I learned that yesterdays wind made it feel colder, slowing any melting it seemed. It was funny seeing a kid hiking in short sleeves and no coat.

Fast and fun. Just enough softness on top of the ice to comfortably hold an edge. Avoid first stretch of pines on purple, take red tip to reconnect with main trail instead. Full coverage on Purple, red and pink. Green has a walk spot, but good everywhere else. No tracks. Thanks groomers. You rock!

I skied two purple loops this afternoon. Groomer worked the skate deck over and it was pretty good though 20-30% has light powder over ice. Classical tracks are iffy (icy or non-existent). Pines have dropped a modest amount of debris which can stop your stride. Overall for late season skiing, I enjoyed it. Thanks groomers!

The lighted trail was very soft but only two bare spots. Really interesting daylight savings light at dusk. Slow skiing Klister snow.

The purple and brown trails were getting soft and slower by early afternoon. There was an expected amount of debris in the pine tree areas, but overall, not bad. Snow covered 100% of the trail and the grooming was holding up. The skate deck was also getting soft. Thursday morning skiing might be faster if the ground below is cold enough. Thanks to the groomers for an extended season!

Grooming [ Trails Open: All, ]
|
The groomers were out last night leveling, renovating and setting track on everything except black. The track set nice and the skate deck might still be a little soft in the middle with the added snow. Black, classic only, had fresh track set Monday night. If you can get out this morning before things get too soft you won't be disappointed. Future grooming plans will be dictated by what Mother Nature decides to give us over the next 24-48 hours. Will keep you posted.
