Tribute golf course ski trail is closed due to multiple ice covered stretches and some bare spots. We'll need a good snow to reopen. Thanks for a good ski season!

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Tribute skate and classic were re-groomed tonight. Tracks were reset using a couple of snow plows to bring in more snow to good effect. The one pond area was filled in with some snow, but a wee bit of slush still came through for a few feet. It should freeze tonight so no detour is necessary. Overall very nice conditions for good skis.

I just got in from grooming Tribute. The skate deck and right-hand track are set. Thanks for all the snow dancing. 4+ inches of heavy snow made for very nice conditions.

Morning
Firsthand: Classic Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Tribute skate deck groomed 2/12 AM and in very good condition. With a little help, I snow farmed and covered a few icy or thin areas. I classic skied a loop and tracks are good, just a little icy going down the hill at the start. A-skis appropriate!

Tribute Skate Deck and right track were groomed early Monday morning. Track is good but a little shallow due to hard snow.

Grooming

Late Friday Evening: I groomed both tracks and the skate deck. The new snow made for nice corduroy and solid deep tracks. Wind had blown earlier tracks closed. Thanks for your support of the WNSC/Tribute Golf Course collaboration.

Grooming

What a wonderful surprise with two or more inches of new snow this morning. I got out and tracked one side and did the skate deck early today. Grooming plans: I'll check back and track the other side and skate deck this evening for the weekend.

Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Sunset ski under a pink/orange sky that became full of stars. Excellent striding. No debris or bare spots. The left Classic track on this one-way trail skied firmer than the right track. Tracks on both sides were consistently straight and smooth. Very enjoyable. The skate deck in between the classic tracks was solid and pleasant. Kudos to the Wausau Nordic Ski Club groomer(s) for maintaining this in town neighborhood looped 3k secret.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Track set and skate decked groomed. Condition are fantastic, no debris. Snow a little soft since it was groomed an hour before. Snow should have set up overnight and ski fantastic. Wausau Nordic Ski Club replaced 2001 Scandic with a 2026 Scandic LE 900 cc to groom Tribute Golf Course. Thank you donors.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
I set left-side tracks at Tribute. The coverage is very good, but will be hard packed. Hoping we get a bit of snow to fill in the base of the tracks. No skate grooming yet. Waiting on some parts yet for the Skandic snomo. The track from Wednesday(right side) still looks well shaped, but with a bit of new snow bonded to the ice base it too should ski well.
