All trails were groomed today, we were able to set track on the brown, purple, and red. Tracks range from very good to shallow and debris filled. Black was rolled, but too shallow to set track. Skate lanes look good to very good. Some debris, and a few rocks on the top of two hills on the green. Get out and enjoy before the next Arctic blast.

After finishing rolling the trails after Tom started them, I was able to get out and ski. I was pleasantly surprised how well the packed snow was adhering to the ice base. All trails have been rolled. Best trails are Pink, Red, Brown, and Terrys loop (Purple, Green, Purple). One of the iciest spots is right behind the cabin so do not let that deter you, it gets much better.

We received 2-3" of light dry snow on top of a glaze ice base. We were only able roll for compaction. No renovation or tracks set. The trails are open but if you go, use extreme caution throughout the system. The new snow has not adhered to the base and icy conditions could be experienced in any location. Debris is minimal but again, the ski surface is thin, very soft and loose. Hopefully with slightly warmer temperatures we will see some bonding of the new to the old snow. Be careful if you venture out to enjoy the winter wonderland.

I skied Greenbush very early this morning before it warmed up and before the closure notice came out. I did one purple lap and a brown. The Purple trail had a solid base with some loose snow on top. It was very skiable until reaching the first set of pines, which had a thin base and lots of pinecones. Very similar conditions were found in the second and third pine areas; in between these sections, it was good for skating. After the big downhill, the purple trail was good, except for a few areas exposed to the sun, but it still had good coverage on the last part of the trail. The brown loop was the best – it had full coverage and even still had tracks.

Skied the Purple, Red and Brown. The pines on the purple and red were a bit sketchy but passable. The rest of purple was very nice. The Brown was great! No classic tracks were set.

We picked up a couple inches of medium body snow Saturday morning, I got out late Saturday night and groomed one Skate deck pass on all loops. Expect an extremely firm skate lane unless the base softens up. The base is still to solid to set track, although I did leave plenty of untouched snow on the left side for classic skiing. The classic only black trail was better off left untouched. Sledding hill was also groomed.

Greenbush survived the rain and warm temperatures this week. There is currently a 1-2 inch icy base consisting of 85/15% frozen corn snow and icy snow. Not skiable at this point. Everything, including the ground, is well covered.
