Best conditions so far this year! The new snow groomed up nice with no bare spots showing through. Warmer temps made it perfect!

Groomer was out this morning at zero dark thirty and just got home.  We received 1" of fresh snow overnight, the entire skate lane was combed, tracks are firm.  Conditions are excellent!  Snowshoe trails are also in great shape.

This is the first time anywhere this ski season that I can say conditions were excellent. I skate skied the entire trail system on freshly groomed trails. Mine were the first tracks on the fresh corduroy. The skate deck was firm as were the classic tracks for double poling. Speed was very good and control on the downhills was also excellent. Kudos to the groomers.

Groomed skate lanes in early morning, turned out to be very firm with good corduroy. Tracks left in place. Overnight dusting of lake affect snow left a nice frosting.

Thin snow but outstanding grooming. Freshly rolled and classic tracks set on thin base. A few spots were bare but easily avoided. Beautiful woods freshly covered with dissing of snow. Could use more snow but ok for good skis today.
