Trail Detail
Notes
A great mix of beginner and expert ski trails. With the inclusion of the Jerry Jolly Trails there is about 25 km groomed for skating and classic. There is also an additional 15 km of classic only trails. With views of Lake Superior and the Apostle Islands, this is a very scenic area to ski. There is a nice lodge which sells snacks and food as well as a ski patrol and small downhill area.Trail Reports

Classic skied 40 something K today. Mixed up the trails from the usual loops. Snow was super fast. Tracks were firm, kick was good with skins, double poling was basically 70% of the technique today. Hill climbs were kickable, or herringboning was doable running up the hills because of the fresh skate deck grooming. Downhills were fast and controlled in the tracks and on the skate deck. I felt like I got up to 35 mph on a few in the tracks. Just a phenomenal ski!! Thank you groomers!

Skied the Jolly long loop and then Northern Lights. There was a bit of fresh snow on top of groomed (slightly crusty from melting on Friday). It was fast and great!

Amy and I skied a bunch of the trails at Mt. Ashwabay, overall the conditions were great! We didn't do any of the classic-only trails, but they looked really good. Abbey Road, Northern Lights, and Buzz all had good tracks, and the skate deck looked amazing - might return in a couple days to skate :) Perfect Toko Red day.

Most of the trails have a fresh dusting of 1/2-1" of snow with some ice/crust underneath from yesterdays warm-up. Classic tracks skied very well with no ice. Skate deck had a few more crunchies. Deer Path had been freshly tracked today. I believe the groomers were also going to track lower sugarbush and Oppedahl's Alley today otherwise no fresh grooming noticed as of 3:00PM.

Classic skied the same 42 km as yesterday. Tracks are pretty good still. There was a dusting of snow which made for slower glide on the fresh areas. Kick was great. Hill climbs were a little less easy as the warm temperatures yesterday and freeze iced up the snow, but the new snow gave grip needed to get it done. All hills were doable in the tracks and herringboning. Could use a grooming. All trails are not groomed to full potential yet. Awesome ski! Fyi a nice young lady was checking passes at the entrance. Haha she almost tackled me before I went out, then again after the 42 km. Sorry, I can't talk or think straight after a hard ski of that distance. I got my pass printed for next time.
