After receiving an additional 6 -8 inches of new snow, the groomers are out. The grooming should be complete this afternoon. No reason to believe they would be anything less than excellent!

The trails were groomed Friday with two classic track sets. Current conditions are excellent. Some parts of the trail may have drifting snow due to the intense winds.

Firsthand: Classic [ Trails Open: All, ]

After a sudden windy snow squall while skiing earlier at St. John's University, I came over to Kraemer Lake and was greeted by nice sunshine and blue skies. I have wanted to ski here for years but most seasons there has been a lack of snow. It doesn't appear the trails have been groomed since the last snowfall but most places you could follow the partially snowed-in tracks. The first 1/2 km. was fairly drifted over but pretty good after that. A very beautiful wooded area with a few nice hills. Thanks Stearns County Parks for having these ski trails.

With the light, fluffy snow and forecasted high winds staff are only rolling/packing the trails today Thursday. The strategy behind rolling today is that the grooves made by packer will catch the blowing snow and thus keep more snow on our trails. By keeping more snow on our ski trails we can (hopefully) extend their lifespan and maybe even ski longer than a week at a time. Groomers will be out Friday to set classic tracks.
