Still great conditions this morning after low temperatures overnight. Snow was starting to stick to skis a bit by 11am when I wrapped up my laps.

Trails are not groomed but well community tracked. Thin spots but passable, get some of this snow while you can!

Skiers like myself have made some tracks both north and south of the drive today. On the south side, there was drifted snow, some bare and some wet areas, but plenty of area with adequate snow. If you go with old skis and very modest expectations, it's a fun workout. The bridges were mostly bare.

There are bare spots on the golf course, but a number of areas that are skiable. The best spots are hole #4 along Good Hope Road and hole # 6 and 8 on the west side of the golf course. The thawing and colder temperatures overnight have produced some crusty snow that should be skateable. Some bridges are bare, so it'll be prepared to take your skis off to walk across.

Very good conditions around and through the woods. Bridges have thin snow cover and there is a bit of debris in the woods. Another inch of snow overnight led to excellent glide. On Sunday I skied the golf course. A prior attempt to groom was visible. Snow depth was much more variable with some nearly bare areas that had not been as protected from the high winds we've had.

There is still good non groomed classic skiing to be had around and through the woods. Snow depth varies from 1 to 4 inches. There are also sections on the golf course that are not wind blown that one could go up and down. Skate skiing these sections looks possible but not ideal by any means.

Another 2 inches of fluffy snow fell this morning and covered up any bare tufts of grass. No grooming visible but classic skiing in and around the woods was very nice.

The woods and golf course are not groomed, but are very skiable. The wind has blown snow away from some areas but other areas that have had protection from the strong west winds have 2 to 5 inches of nice snow. Thanks to the park staff for cutting down a few large trees that were overhanging the trail in the woods.

If you're really jonesing to go skiing Brown Deer golf course is doable. Snow is not very deep, but if you lay down your own track there is exercise and a mind clearing experience to be had.

Skied skate lane as the sun was setting Tuesday and its looked liked it had been groomed at some point recently. Full coverage, hard, and fast even with the warmer conditions. It's not perfect, but its a great way to get some K in without driving to the Kettle. There is leaf debris, but it really didn't slow me down at all. You could probably use good skis without damage. I just happened to have an older pair waxed for the warm.
