Skied the stone bridge loop Christmas afternoon. Grooming looked like it was great just a couple days prior, before the heavy winds. Tracks were still there in many places, and somewhat blown over to very drifted over in other areas. Track on the first third had been broken in by another pair of skiers, but their tracks veered off towards the lake at some point. Most of the leaves seem to be buried under the snow already but there were many sticks blown down onto the trail, but avoidable. Skating looked doable if a little slow. Overall still worth getting out. Entrance road and pine knob looked like they were also open.
