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.

Grooming

Tuesday all the Skate/Classic trails were groomed and tracked. There was 2-3 inches of new snow that groomed very well and with the cooler temps it should make for several days of great skiing for those in need of last minute Birkie training.

The skate trails were touched up this morning. They are in fantastic condition. The classic tracks need to be touched up but we are waiting for the perfect temperatures.

This morning the skate lanes were refreshed. The classic tracks were left alone because the temperature profile would have left them too soft for skiing today. Have a good day.

New Snow! I’d say the trails got 3-4 inches of new fluffy lake effect snow which mixed into the base will ski like a dream. Today groomed and Tracked North Star Beginners Loop, Telford, Abbey Road, Jolly, Skid Road, Seagull connector, Northern Lights, Seagull, Anchor, Switch Back, Anchor Power line Connector, Power Line, and Roller Coaster. The Skate lanes look excellent, the Classic tracks are good and look a lot better than yesterday but are not perfect yet.

Great skating both today and yesterday. Tracks were a bit icy in sections, but with skin skis, we had lots of fun anyway both days.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Good skis ]
This morning we groomed all the skate lanes, they are flat, firm, and fast with a nice surface texture. The classic tracks on the skate/classic trails are still in good condition. I’ll tell you straight the trails are mostly in great shape but until we get new snow you will experience variability in the surface depending on how warm any section got on Sunday. Half the trails ski like normal winter conditions (dry firm snow) but you may discover a section with groomed micro-ice particles right next to it. As I said earlier there is a surface layer of groomed snow on a firm base everywhere, the difference is the composition of the groomed layer. The classic track was reset on Raven, Deer Path, Black Bear, and Oppedahl’s.
