This is the first time in a long time that I’ve skied at Chester Woods where there was a beautiful track set for the classic skiers. I saw a lot of snowshoers also out on the trails today. I also crossed paths with someone from the Birkie! It’s been over 10 years that these trails have been this good. As I finished my workout after almost two hours I crossed pass with a couple skate skiers. They look like they were having fun too!

A 3 inch snow event was groomed this morning. Classical track was set however some areas of the trails are thin base. Trail should firm up overnight and be ready for some good fat tire riding. Be mindful to ride to one side of the trails with snow conditions being soft.

With the fresh 3" snowfall from yesterday, we were able to groom the trails. The base is very thin so there are a few bare spots. It is obviously too thin to set track, but the temps are cold enough that it should set up what snow we do have nicely.
