All the trail were groomed today and fresh tracks set on the classic and shared trails. Conditions are in tiptop shape.

After grooming and tracking yesterday, Razorback Ridges is in excellent shape. I skied Doug's Folly and Lions Pride this afternoon. Tracks I set yesterday were firm and considering all the new snow we've had to work with they were fast but easily controllable on the steeper downhills with sharp curves. Ran into friends on the way in where classic and skate loops come together. They said skate loops were in excellent condition as well.

I groomed and tracked all classic loops this morning. I would consider them excellent for the most part with well set tracks and firm deck. Robert Polic groomed all skate trails yesterday, and from what I saw of them they are also in excellent condition.

Received a few inches of slushy snow yesterday and a few inches of drier snow today. I got out this afternoon and groomed all the skate loops and they're back in great shape - clean, flat and firm. Grooming plans: Will will be grooming and setting track on the classic trails in the morning.

I arrived around 2:00 pm to moderate snow falling. There was just a dusting on the skate deck at that time. I skied Long Rider along with Bruce's Roundabout. The further out and closer I got to Bruce's Roundabout the more uneven the skate deck became. The return from the Bruce's Roundabout cut-off was more level. Speed was fair with the the new fallen snow that was now piling up on the skate deck. By the time I skied Will's Crossing, there was a good two inches of new snow on the skate deck and my initial tracks on Long Rider out to Will's Crossing were no longer visible underneath the fresh snow. Razorback Ridges is my favorite place to come for a good workout. Long Rider never disappoints me in that regard.

Skated all the skate segments. Was very happy to find the trail conditions to be spot on to Friday's report submitted by Robert Prolic ( trail groomer). Actually I had no problems with debris on the trail. Trail was very level fast and fun. Had no problem keeping my balance. Thank you groomers for top notch grooming and spot on grooming reports.

The warm weather yesterday resulted in glazed-over trails this morning. We groomed all of the skate loops, blending the glazing with the softer snow from below. Trails don't have perfect corduroy and there's a fair amount of debris but should be fast and fun. Classic trails are scheduled to be groomed on Saturday.

All trails were groomed today. Will took care of the classic trails and set new track this morning and I took care of the skate trails and did some more brushing and cutting. Other than some leaves, needles and occasional sticks that came down in the wind, trails are in excellent shape.

Will groomed and set track on all the classic trails on Thursday and I groomed all the skate loops today (and swept out Wills tracks on the shared trails - sorry). I did some more cutting and brushing along the skate and shared trails - there's a lot less to duck under and weave around but there's still a few to watch out for.

Groomed all the skate loops this afternoon. The new snow that came in last night really helped to smooth out the trails. There's still some trees and branches overhanging the trail but I whacked a lot of the worst offenders.
