I went out and scratched up all the skate lanes this morning. We still have mostly very good skiing, and a few areas of debris and thin spots, Greenbush is still the place to be!

Took a drive up to Greenbush on Sunday and was not disappointed. Skied the Purple and Brown loops. Put in 28km. Trails had good cover, little more snow up here. A solid base with fresh groomed top about half inch. A few icy spots and debris on trail. The downhill on back side of Purple was a bear and hurts when you fall! Took a tumble. Was somewhat icy and rutted so use caution here. Other than that, was fast and flat portions you could really cruise! Was early morning. By the time I left, parking lot was full and trail getting soft.

I got there about 8:30 am and did the purple twice and brown twice. Hardpack with just enough loose top to make the skate deck quite fast. I even took first place in my Strava age group for the purple. Thanks to the groomer who got out to make this another amazing Greenbush day!

Epic ski at Greenbush this morning! The skate deck was solid and with the overnight grooming there was just enough purchase for good skating. Green was screaming. The rime frost was the frosting on the cake. As the morning progressed the areas exposed to the sun became softer. With spring like conditions timing is everything. Thank you groomers for making potentially icy conditions safe.

Out around 9AM during transition, found the base was firm with generally good coverage with usual pine debris in woods. Great, fast skiing - some of the best of the season. Control was good thanks to the club's grooming efforts. Hoarfrost once again provided some spectacular scenery. "Nordic Heaven" did not disappoint!

Wow! I started at 7am. Icy surface with good control! The trails were groomed last night and it was phenomenal! I skied everything except the pink. The brown and red have great coverage. The green is great save for a small bare area at the power lines which is passable. Otherwise really good! The purple is good with some debris in the pines, but not enough to slow you down. Great work by our grooming crew keeping things going. Huge thanks! This is the place to be in wisconsin today!

All trails at Greenbush were groomed last night and were in as good as condition as they could be given the weather. I skied all trails and they were all very good. Skate deck was firm and fast with just enough tilling to get an edge. Tracks are intermittent and shallow due to low snow conditions. Some dirt and leaves in the usual areas under pines.

I did a late Saturday night grooming and track setting of the entire system including the black trail. The classic tracks are shallow do to the solid base, skate deck smoothed and leveled very nicely, early Sunday skating conditions could possibly be the best of the season, There are a few bare spots, I would recommend B+ skis (if there is such a thing). Happy skiing and please leave a trail report, we value the feedback (good or bad).

Classic skied the red and green loops around 3pm. Better coverage than expected, with only a few easily avoidable bare spots. Conditions were extremely fast and exciting. The tracks were glazed but present and in decent shape on both loops.

Another good day at Greenbush. The air temperature was 32F when I arrived just before nine this morning. I skied a purple, blue, brown, and the practice segment. A little crust when I started then turning softer due to ski traffic and rising temperatures. The base is much more solid than when I skied last Sunday. If it goes below freezing at night the morning is the best time. Thank you groomers for preserving these trails in difficult weather conditions.
