12-18" has been groomed into skate and classic skiing. There is high variability in snow depth with some large drifts due to the high winds. The mud creek bridge has been blown down to bare ice. There is some light debris under the pine trees, the classic track is beautiful. All sections open. Enjoy the snow!

Zero grooming done since last week. Temperature got below freezing last night. Crusted over snow with debris. Uneven base. Plenty of footprints. Warm again today. Looks like the ski grooming season is over despite plenty of snow.

I love this trail, and I know some of the groomers personally; they do a great job. Always a high five, but it's time for me to beg: it really needs to be groomed. The base is pretty much melted. At the beginning, where the parking lot is, people have already walked on the trail, which is unfortunate. And there's tons of debris. I actually had to take my skis off once during my skating just before the bridge. It got a little bit better, but it really needs to be groomed.

Area had 50f and sunny skies yesterday., then the cold front came thru and dropped temps well below freezing. Thus a frozen surface with some footprints. Classical tracks are icy and in need pf reset. Trails have not been touched from the view at the south parking lot. Plenty of snow.

Just classic skied this beautiful trail! Where is everyone? I saw only one other skier in three hours. Conditions are as close to perfect as you can get. Solid skate deck and fresh-laid classic tracks. Get out there!

First one out on the skate deck. It has solidified following last night's grooming; only some sections still a little soft. Very reasonable glide. The daily west end resident hiker provided the corresponding HBI (hiking boot index) of approximately 3".

Drove into the south parking lot around 5:00pm to see the grooming team just starting their newest work. Pulling a 6 foot Tidd G2 with track set and skate lane. Plenty of snow. Area received around 4 inches of dry snow mid afternoon.

Groomed 4-5" fresh light snow for a good result. Firm clean skate deck and fresh classic tracks thru beautiful woods and bogs and over bridges and broad walks. Very good results.

We pulled our Tidd Tech groomer over 6 inches of new snow with excellent results. The trees are laden with new snowfall creating picturesque scenery around every turn. Enjoy the finest conditions of this season.
