Trail Detail
Notes
Trails are on the golf course. Some nice hills but most of the course is pretty exposed. There is one back leg that is quite shaded and seems to hold snow long after the rest of the course loses it. Rentals at the chalet.Trail Reports

The trails are newly groomed and in great condition. The classic track is groomed to full depth over most of the course. Watch out for exposed earth at the sand trap by the 16th green; Skirt to the right of the sand trap.

I skated at Como early this morning. Most of the flat sections of the course were hard-packed and icy; the uphills were in better shape-- softer but not sugary. It was challenging to get an edge on a lot of the course. The trail at the top of the downhill coming out of the back bowl (between the pine trees) had been snowplowed down to ice and warrants a cautious approach. Hopefully the groomers can get out and grind things up a bit. My mom classic skied there at the same time and said that the tracks were in good condition, with the exception of a couple of bare spots near the beginning of the loop. It looked to me like they had been washed out in the usual places.

At 3:15 the classic tracks were set with much of the track filled with blown snow. On the few segments that were clear, the track was well set and quick. Thanks groomer! The freesyle deck looked to be in great shape! High school groups were arriving and setting up.

February sun, fresh snow, and a nicely groomed classic track made for great conditions for skiing. Bluebirds and robins out numbered the skiers this morning shortly before noon.

Como offers a wide, firm skate lane with full coverage and little ice. Easy to get an edge with last night's dusting of snow. Classic tracks were full of wind-blown snow, but the groomer appeared to be starting work as I left at 630am and ought to leave a nice track for your sunny afternoon.

Two hat morning. Windblown track that was rolled earlier. Classic track icy in spots with microparticle snow in others. Swix Polar gave decent kick. Skate lane barely holding snow, but skiable with decent edges. Dress warm and enjoy the sun. Two others out and the downhill area dotted with intrepid gravity fed skiers.

Both classic and skate trails were groomed. Some drifting. Blue kick wax (V30) was too soft. Try green kick wax (V20).

Tried to get out this evening after the snow came. The rain last night did a number and there was a lot of ice (really hard snow?), The wind was bitter and we only made a short loop before heading back home to warm up near the fire at home. With all the blowing wind, you couldn't see any of the trails that had been groomed earlier in the week. Definitely need to wait for the groomers to do some magic after the weather dies down.

Good coverage throughout still. Got to Como at 2:30. The skate deck was firm and smooth, but it was still possible to get an edge. My partner did classic and said that tracks were also pretty good. High school teams showed up at 3:30, but it never felt too crowded.

I skated at Como this morning, and the trail was mostly in good shape. There are a couple of spots near the beginning of the course with exposed ground and a few patches of dirty snow, but most of the coverage was excellent. There was no ice at the bottoms of the hills, and I didn't encounter any cart paths.
