The trail system runs through three contiguous city parks: Jaycee Park, Evergreen Park and Maywood Environmental Park. The main trail follows the Pigeon River and is fairly flat, rising a few times into the bluffs above the river. Roughly 3K lit trail in Evergreen Park.Trail Reports

As promised I spent several hours this morning making a tracking sled which I put into service this afternoon and set track throughout the Maywood Prairie and No. 9 trail. With 3 or 4 inches of new snow to work with I was able to get good not great results, nevertheless there are tracks. Some people were using them while I was working on grooming in the skate deck which is going to soft until I get the snowmobile back or people ski it in.

With the snowmobile having mechanical issues I took to my human powered drag to condition the 2 to 3 inches of snow we received yesterday and smashed it down to an inch of base. I made 3 loops of trail 9 or west of the road and compacted fairly well. No tracks yet. Hoping to have the snowmobile back to do that or I may build a tracking sled if we get more snow.

I skied both loops at Maywood a couple times. Both loops had very good snow cover. It was nice to get outside skiing for an hour or so and not have to drive a 45 minutes to get there. I saw two other skiers enjoying this "urban trail" while I was there (and three hikers). Thank you, groomers, for the Christmas gift of groomed trails for those of us who were able to get out and enjoy them.
