Decent coverage, some debris and dirt spots. They've done a commendable job moving snow to cover the trails. North from the Nordic Center is packed ice from all the tractor traffic but what can you expect? Best conditions are on the short loop south of the center.

Firsthand: Both 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
We have about 2km of tracks set and they are awesome. Nearly all Nordic Center trails are in good skiing condition with full snow coverage thanks mainly the Vasaloppet snow farmers. We will continue to move snow with tractors which make some trails very rough until groomed and avoiding tractors moving snow can be an interesting challenge. No tracks are set at this time. We added 3km of new trails on just north of the Nordic Center which are very nice with full coverage of natural snow. Happy trails!

Nearly all Nordic Center trails are in fair to good skiing condition with full snow coverage thanks mainly the Vasaloppet snow farmers. We will continue to move snow with tractors which make some trails very rough until groomed and avoiding tractors moving snow can be an interesting challenge. No tracks are set at this time. We hope to set tracks very soon. We added 3km of new trails on just north of the Nordic Center which are very nice. Happy trails!

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Good skis ]
2.3 km of manufactured snow in very good skiing condition. Continuous loop around Nordic Center and then out and back to "Bowl" Area. Loop to Bowl area should be completed early in the week. Rock skis recommended on trails further out on Nordic Center Trails. These trails will change as snowmaking crews move to these areas.
