Treehaven received about 3-4" of snow overnight. All trails except the single track portion of Dragonfly were groomed and should be in good to excellent shape. Warm and wet snow made for tracks that are sometimes a little rough in spots as the snow tended to clump and pack to the groomer. There is a short section of icy tracks on the north portion of the Red Oak Loop between map points 10 and 7. Best conditions can be found on the Big Pine Loop which was groomed earlier in the day when the snow was colder.

All trails were groomed this morning except Dragonfly. Conditions will likely be somewhat soft given the new snow and will likely ice and glaze somewhat today with the warm temps, especially areas in the sun.

All trails were rolled today using several passes to pack the new falling snow. A quick one pass groom and track set was done on Big Pine Loop, Red Oak, Deer Path and Sugarbush after the bulk of the snowstorm had passed. Conditions will be soft as it normally takes several passes to firm up the trail after a large snowfall. Hoping to make some additional passes later this week to firm up the trail and deal with any melt/freeze.

The good news is that we survived the melt and rain this week and still have about 5" of base on most of our trails. The bad news is that the melting snow and rain left a handful of gray ice patches on our trail system that no amount of grooming can fix, including a really nasty ice patch right below the main trailhead by the Office. At this time we recommend all skiers avoid the main trailhead and use only the Trailhead off of Hwy H. Sugarbush, Deer Path, Red Oak and the northern portion of the Big Pine Loop were groomed today. Some sections turned out very good, but in other areas the tracks will be thin and icy. There is a gray ice patch on the north half of the Red Oak Loop between map points 7 and 10 which can be avoided by sticking to the southern portion of the loop. The steep nhill on Deer Path has a short section of dirty snow that I attempted to cover with shoveled snow from the sides of the trail, which mostly succeeded but there could be an odd pebble or small stone still embedded in this section of trail. Best conditions can be found on Sugarbush and the southern half of the Red Oak Loop. Included pictures show some of the good patches as well as the gray ice patch on the Red Oak Loop.

Skied Big Pine, Red Oak, Deer Path and Sugarbush. Overall, the trails are holding up pretty well despite the heat wave. There are a few thin spots near the edges of the trail on Big Pine and the North side of the Red Oak Loop and a small patch of dirt on the steep downhill on Deer Path. Otherwise coverage is still very good and in the shaded sections plenty of base and deep classic tracks. Tracks are icy or slushy depending on time of day under the pines and in the sunny spots so timing is critical to finding an enjoyable ski in the spring like weather. Best conditions can be found on Sugarbush, the South part of Red Oak and North half of Big Pine Loop.

All trails except Big Pine Cutoff and Dragonfly Loop were re-groomed today. Most segments received 3-4 passes with our Ginzu which did a good job of breaking up the crust and ice and reducing the amount of forest debris. Tracks are a little shallow and icy under the pines where the crust was very hard, but elsewhere the tracks came out looking really good. Groomer's choice recommendation for the weekend would be Sugarbush, Deer Path and the Red Oak Loop.
