Poor, but skiable, conditions for skate and stride. Skate deck is alternately white or brown slush, ice, or water on ice. Very dirty, especially in the pines. Tracks are slushy, icy, or wet, with debris and occasional bare spots. Still plenty of base in most areas.

Good, highly variable conditions for skate and fair conditions for stride. Skate deck is a mix of good snow, slush, and ice, with good coverage throughout. Skaters were doing very well on it. Tracks are another matter - soft sidewalls and icy bottoms, with dirty spots - tree debris - and a few small bare spots breaking through. Still worth giving a try.

Very good conditions for skate, good to fair for stride this morning. Overnight PB grooming provided a snowy surface layer on the skate deck that turned slushy in the sun and warmth, but remained very fast, especially on the shaded downhills. Tracks were good in most places, but were occasionally washed out or very dirty, especially in the woods near the AED. A few bare spots showing up on the edges.

Excellent conditions for skate and stride this morning. The groomed mix of new and old snow set up nicely, providing a fast skating surface and solid, snowy tracks. A couple of tiny icy spots, but much improved from yesterday. The snow is softening and slowing under the sun.

The Pisten bully was out Saturday night grooming the 4" of snow the park received. The skate deck should be in good condition with a few icy spots. New classic tracks were set. The classic tracks are mostly full depth with a few areas of ice. We will see what this upcoming week brings for weather. Most likely this will be our last week of skiing for the year.

Good but variable conditions for skate, fair for stride. Most of the skate deck is a decent layer of sugar snow with some dirty spots and some spots where the cover is thin and the ice base exposed. Very fast, overall. No bare spots. Magic Carpet is easily controllable, but there is an icy spot at the bottom. Tracks are easily broken down and are icy. There has been dirt tracked onto the trail at the trailhead and other locations by foot traffic.

Most parts skied fast on the uphill to the magic carpet there are very icy parts but overall not bad. Very fast though and the classic track conditions are good 3/4 of the man made loop open. Get out there.

We are not done yet..... but the end is near. The Pisten bully was out early this morning grooming the man made loop. The skate deck should be in good condition. New classic track was set and is thin in some areas and full depth in others. Enjoy spring skiing. We will continue to groom as conditions allow.

Fair conditions for skate and stride. Surface snow is slushy and rutted, but the ruts are soft and break down easily. Tracks are slushy and breaking down. Best areas are in the woods. Downhills are slow.

I scratched up the skate deck of the man made loop this morning. Conditions should be good this morning and will likely soften up as the day goes on. I left the tracks as is. They looked a little icy but should also soften up as it gets warmer.
