Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
The course was rolled multiple times Wednesday during and after the snow. It was a little too soft to groom so we'll get that done when the snow sets up. Note that the course was re-routed slightly by the fence near Columbia Park to avoid runoff from the road.

Trail was well groomed. Snow is a bit thin in a small high patch near the driving range fence, but still snow covered.

Thanks to great grooming and lots of fresh snow, the trails were great today! Thanks groomers! Used B skis but didn't need to -- you can hop out of the tracks for the two small grassy spots.

Groomed and set new track this morning. Looks good, so get out and ski! You can use your good skis but I noticed a couple of grass spots showing - definitely avoidable. More snow could allow for a really great trail this year. Take advantage of the snow we have!

The full course was rolled Thursday evening. Good coverage everywhere, but the wind was starting to pick up and cause some drifting.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
All trails rolled and groomed this morning. I set tracks for a while, but stopped because they were bottoming out too much. I'm not sure how the skiing will be, it seemed like the snow wasn't bonded to the underlying ice in places so it might be a challenge. Also a few easily avoided grass patches showing through. Think snow!

[ Rock skis ]
Skied the golf course this morning to a majestic sunrise. There are plenty of places where grass and other debris is poking through. The trail is somewhat uneven due to blowing snow and drifting. I used rock skis and didn't worry about it. The important thing is that it was quite ski-able! I started at the driving range and didn't go up to the bridge over the railroad tracks -- quite a large section of bare cart path there.
