I skied the entire system from the trailhead to the tower. All segments were groomed recently, and I was able to skate on nice, soft (yet packed) snow the whole way. It might have been a bit soft if you like to ski fast on hard snow. Otherwise, it was great, and the best conditions I've skied at Blueberry in quite a while.

New 6 inch snowfall has been groomed and track set to H and back. More grooming is planned since more snow is forecast.

A bit crusty with crumbles, but had enough ski edge purchase to go to the tower. It was a little fast with impeded snowplow effectiveness on the downhills. I sidestepped partway down the steepest hill, which is getting near the tower end. Trail groomer Dave thought it would be real nice tomorrow if the snow warms and softens up a bit.

Classic skis with special green made for great kick but not much glide due to zero degree temps. All trails groomed and tracked but we did only Prelude and Red Pine Junction with kids. Sun shining = great skiing!

A couple inches of new fluffy snow in the tracks all the way to Tower and back made for really fun riding the rails safely on the curvy downhills! Met one of the new groomer operators as he finished Lake Loop. Grooming plans: More grooming after the next snowfall.

Absolutely beautiful day and the trails are perfect. Great job grooming! We are so lucky to have these beautiful trails right here in Deer River!

All sections of the trail have been groomed and track set on all trail sections; Prelude, Lake Loop and Tower end. I skied the Lake Loop and Prelude today and it skied very well. Thanks to new groomers Dave and Tony for their assistance and hard work.

From Trailhead around Lake Loop down the screaming hill from Pincherry Junction was groomed this morning. Skate deck firm and track set. Grooming plans: Prelude and Tower sections to be done today or tomorrow.

Got in a great skate early morning before heavy wet snow falling slowed us up. About 2 inches had fallen up by the time we finished.

Trails are freshly groomed and track set all the way to Tower End and back thanks to team work by packers, clearers, and three groomers! Hurray!
