Thank you to the groomers! The course is rolled and classic tracks were set. I skate skied, the skate deck was soft and slow. Relatively few spots with debris all things considered, easy to navigate around. I used my good skis and it was fine! The classic tracks looked pretty decent too, even if thin in places. Overall great to be able to get out in the neighborhood and ski. There was a train engine idling just north of the bridge which wasn't great for air quality.

Columbia was rolled last night and groomed this morning. The new snow helped out and freshened things up, but it's still thin with some dirt and debris here and there. Use caution near the thin areas and it should be pretty easy to navigate around. I did set tracks on sections around the course, but they are thin and bare in some spots, so use caution there also. It's pretty out there. Enjoy!

Groomed Columbia this morning to smooth out the skate deck. It's pretty thin out there but skiable. Use rock skis but enjoy the skiing that we currently have.

Groomed, looks like a lot of use after. A bit of debris under trees (pine cones, twigs), some grass poking through high spots, avoidable dirt in a couple areas. Mostly just a little bit packed. I avoided the narrow spot by the picnic area and didn't cross the bridge to the clubhouse (east) side.

Columbia was rolled last night and groomed for skate this morning. No tracks were set due to the thin snow. The base is very thin and there are many places where grass and dirt are showing through. However, these patches are mostly avoidable and it is very skiable if you don't mind dinging your skis now and then.

Went out for some old fashion ski fun on the hills! Stayed on the fairways and grass hills, so no rocks etc. Definitely worth it. Looking forward to grooming.

Columbia is still hanging on. Thin and very slow snow on the skate deck. Many dirt and grass patches, but there was always a way around them. I edged through to a cart path once near the bridge. The skier made tracks are pretty much gone. Still skiable though!

I'm dreaming of a good ski New Years. But we gotta B ski Xmas. Columbia is very skiable. Full coverage but lots of grass blades on the hills. Go get some B skis and enjoy the paltry snow.
