Got out on the windy morning. Skate deck had been recently groomed, but definitely signs of use. Was on the slower end due to the cold, but still great skiing. Only downside is the wind has led to some fresh leaves and sticks on the ground. Hoping some new snow can add a boost.

I want to congratulate the groomers for an exceptional grooming job this morning. I've skied a number of places the last few days but must say the conditions at Elver were by far the best! Lots of folks out on the northwest trail which was very good but the southeast was even better since there was little "traffic". Solid base, evenly packed. Only issue was leaves littered on parts of the trail. The two big hills on the northwest side were groomed very well and even. Tracks looked good as well. Keep up the excellent work!

A nice first ski of the season. Tracks not set everywhere. In some areas there are volunteer tracks. Skate skiing lanes were a little choppy and need fresh grooming. Occupational grass, twig, and ice.

Skied the main trails (lighted) loop on Sunday afternoon and found the trails to be in great condition. The crews had been out to groom already, so track was set.
