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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Tribute was freshly groomed Monday night. Skate deck looks great and now there are tracks on left and right side. Should be good for a day or a few! Happy Holidays!

I put new tracks on the left side at Tribute this morning. The tracks are very nice for more than 95% of the course. I'd use caution coming down the big downhill after crossing the big bridge (icy). The curved downhills in the Sylvan fields are also icy, but only a for a short bit. I skied two laps this afternoon and was very pleased with the classic conditions. Skate deck is still very icy.

I tried to groom Tribute this morning with limited success due to hard icy snow. The skate deck is icy in places where the overnight snow was blown off. I could not re-track as it was too hard. The old tracks are still there and mostly blown over with snow. Could be mostly ok if skied in.
