I skied the red loop first. I have indicated good skis but make sure you walk down the big hill down to the lake as there is a major obstacle, rock or root, that will damage your skis if you ski down. Other than that, the new snow made conditions very good overall. The tracks were deep and track speed was good. I also skied the blue and green loops. It was a great afternoon skiing.

All loops tracked. Overall good conditions.

We skied the red trail to the point where it connects with the blue trail, then continued on the blue trail for the rest of the loop. The red trail is icy and trampled. Take the "expert" rating to heart. The blue trail was in decent shape. The track was fairly clear, if not super deep. Better on the non-paved segment than the paved segment. I selected B skis because there is some tree debris to watch for. Obviously rotted stuff that came down with the weight of Friday's wet snow. We tossed off what we found, but I'd guess there's more elsewhere.

All loops tracked. Thin base with shallow tracks in areas. Green and Blue loops in better shape. Fair conditions.

I skied the red loop. The outer loop by the lake could definitely use more snow as there were many exposed rocks and roots. That’s why I recommended rock skis. However, there did seem to be enough cover and there were tracks for the most part on the blue and green loops. It’s too bad the hikers don’t use the snowshoe/bicycle trails instead of the ski trails for hiking. Snow started falling soon after I started creating a nice ambience. The new snow improved conditions a little but it stopped much too soon.

We skied the Blue segment yesterday around noon, and conditions were perfect. Good cover, good track. We skied the Green segment today around noon, and conditions have slightly deteriorated. The cover is still decent, if a little more compacted and slightly icy. The track has been a bit trampled by hikers, though. It's still visible in most places, much of it even deep enough to guide a ski. But, expect to work through trackless flattened sections occasionally.
