We are still working to open the trails. Many areas look like a tornado went thru, but it was all from the heavy snowfall. We are making progress, but it's slow.

Grooming 
[ Trails: Closed, Good skis ]
We started working on packing and clearing the trail after 26" of heavy wet snow. We did 2 km, it took about 4 hours, and we probably cut 50 trees off of the trail. It will be a slow process.

Observation 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Good skis ]
We have received 11" of heavy wet snow, and are expecting more tonight. Grooming plans: We will try and get to the trails to pack and track as soon as possible, but sometimes its a challenge when the snow is so wet.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Rock skis ]
Skied the trails on the West Side of CR 44. Enough snow in most spots. Swamp crossing was a lot of shallow ice but not much water. A lot of branches down since maintenance before Deer Season. Groomer rolling trails near parking area and clearing blowdown. Definitely skiable, but not enough snow to set track yet.
