Overall icy tracks with a lot of tree debris. Zeke's Return was pretty rough—a bumpy trail of ice. The rest was decent with a glaze of ice in the tracks, interrupted by various sticks and leaves. Some dog and walker tracks on the skate side. Lots of foreign tracks on Zeke's return.

Went to ski Wednesday evening but the trail lights were not lit and too dark a night without them. Tried to find a contact for the lighting but we were unsuccessful. So disappointed because it was a perfect night for a ski. Hope the lights get figured out!

This morning all the trails at MN Power/Blackwater Env Area were groomed and tracked and all trails are in good shape and the classic ski tracks are in excellent condition. Enjoy the trails with a night sky with the lighted trails and a full moon!

Skate was not groomed. Bummer because it would have been fast. Some sticks/debris. Classic looked fast and was groomed.

A few spots could use more snow base, but overall smooth sailing -10F, -20WC. Bird activity was minimal, but the frost whiskers got long. A refreshing Saturday morning!

Today trails were groomed and tracks were set. The lights are on so go enjoy the Blackwater/MN Power trails!
