Double tracked out and back to Joyce Estate, but north trail not groomed. Varying conditions but overall fantastic spring skiing! Extra blue worked well at 10 degrees when I started and still worked great at 30 degrees when I finished. Sun on the first two or three uphills had bared rocks so on the return trip we took off skis and walked down. You could tell grooming was a challenge to get it as good as it was today! Otter tracks by the open flowing creek!

Trout lake trail in very good condition, a little sticky grooming. Beautiful day brilliant blinding sun. Wear your best sunglasses and slather your best tanning butter.

Rolled and packed Doan Lake Trails. New Classic tracks set. Very nice conditions. Should be some good skiing.

Trout lake and Doan lake trails groomed today. Tracked trails in good condition. All trails open. Good skiing conditions.

Skiers have worked in an excellent double track to Joyce Estate. The spur to the south end of Trout Lake had not had any recent traffic, so I cheerfully worked that in. Near perfect conditions!

I skied this trail system for the first time today and it was great. There was about an inch of new snow that had fallen overnight that covered up some of the leaf debris. Conditions were fast. Bonus was a fresh otter slide across the trail where it passes between Moore Lake and Trout Lake!

Freshly groomed, Trout Lake to the North Gate, and Doan Lake Trail system with the Ginzu groomer. Excellent conditions if I must say so myself.

Skied the north end. Trail had not been groomed since last snow, so it was pretty slow going on the way out. Went up to Day lake and turned around. Little bit quicker on way back but it would be nice to have it groomed.

The grooming looked pretty fresh with only a few other skiers before me on the south end. North of the estate footprints were on the trail and in the tracks at times, but not too bad. Thin snow cover but no issues using B skis. With just a little more snow, good skis would probably be just fine. Two sets of tracks south of the estate and one set of track north of the estate. I did not ski Doan lake, but it looked a little more rustic. Thanks for grooming!

I pulled the Ginzu on all Trout Lake and Doan Lake trails this morning and set new classic tracks. About 2 inches of light fluffy ungroomed snow. A little debris on the trails from the wind but the tracks are pretty good. Maybe a thin spot or rock here or there on the Joyce trail.
