Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Rock skis ]
Really quite icy. Tracks are present, but they are really icy, and have quite a bit of bare spots. It makes it pretty dangerous on any downhills as you get going, then hit a bare spot and halt to a stop. It’s hard to get out of the tracks as the rest of the trail is really walked over so very lumpy, then frozen hard. Not great skiing sadly. Hopefully we get a fresh coat tonight.
