Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Rock skis ]
New snow Wednesday morning: 1 - 2 inches. Trail base after rolling: 1 - 2". Snow in the woods: 4 - 6". Wednesday morning rolled with coarse roller: West Overlook; Upper and Lower Snowman; Pincushion Loop and East Overlook. Many areas with exposed rocks and gravel. Skiing poor, rock skis only and ski with extreme caution. Grooming plans: Thursday morning we plan to coarse roll all the advanced trails with the hope for enough new snow to do some actual grooming. Think snow! The picture included is from the lower side of the Pincushion Loop trail. Better than expected.

Firsthand: Classic 
[ Rock skis ]
Trails were ungroomed. Some sections had been blown clear of snow, others had 6 inches. I was able to pick my way past most of the bare spots but still hit a few things in the thin areas. Wind was howling but was pretty nice in the woods.
