Trail was regroomed today after 42 degrees yesterday. A lot of the clumps of snow on the trees fell on the ski track, and these were smoothed out to the best of our pull behind groomers ability. Expect some twigs and pine needles down in the wooded areas.

Regroomed portions of the trail that were not groomed on Monday. Trees were removed that keep falling from the December storms.

All segments of the trail are open but there's been no grooming this week. The tracks are drifted through the marsh, so it seems like a real wilderness ski. The are trees down that need some attention, these are not on slopes and skiers have found paths around them. Once groomed this place will be spectacular, until then it's a wilderness adventure.

After a morning low of -33F, it warmed up to -3F and time to get out for a ski. South loop was in great shape, deep tracks and solid pole plants. Not the best glide at these temps, but the sun was out, and the trees were flocked with snow.

Skied all of the easy and difficult trails this morning. The tracks on the north side were initially covered in a couple inches of light and powdery snow. However, once we crossed the road and skied the South Loop, we found freshly groomed tracks! The North trails were also being groomed as we were leaving. Still bits of debris here and there, but overall the trails were in great shape! A huge thank you to Al for his excellent work!

Had a great ski today. Trails were tracked on Friday, and had 1" new snow on them. Glide wasn't as great as it could have been, but the temperature was right, the woods were beautiful, and best of all there were no trees down.

Cleared more down trees today, and set a track. A few areas have brush close to the track, but should be good skiing this weekend.

We are slowly getting the trails open from all the heavy snow damage. We are about 70% cleared of downed trees and tracked. Expect some twigs and pine needles on trail, as we did not get any new snow from the latest storm. The snowshoe trail is open and cleared for those coming to snowshoe.

After many hours, and many volunteers we have 5K of trail open and tracked. Expect twigs and pine needles down. We will keep working to open the rest of the areas.

We are still trying to get a skiable loop open after all the heavy snow damage. We hope to have crews out every day this week, and hopefully have a track set by the end of the week.
