The small manmade loop is in good condition but not connected to the other ski trails across the bridge or the big hill. I recommend sticking to Quarry Hill until the parks dept has connected it all.

The machine made snow trail and Hammer (across the bridge) were groomed this morning, no track. Upper trails were not yet groomed as of 12 pm.

Went on a walk with the dogs to check out the trail. Lots of snow. Unfortunately the trails were solid ice on top and not groomed. :-( Does not look skiable. Hope that they will resume grooming soon.

Pretty good skiing this morning. Trail was groomed with Ginzu this morning. City's Pisten Bully broke down on the weekend, hoping for parts today or Friday. No track; deck is icy underneath and in his so of ground up snow on top. Not what you expect with a tilled trail, but not bad.

Trails have not been groomed for a couple of days. A solid ribbon of boiler plate ice. Not worth injuring myself on.

Small .7k loop is open and plenty of people out. Trails are good and clean but a bit icy. You can tell they city is working hard to extend the trail including the big hill. Should have a lot more trail open after Christmas.

We now have 0.7Km of machine made snow trail open, freshly groomed with a nice track-just in time for the thaw. Crews were moving snow on top of the next loop. Natural trails were hard packed.

Hammer, The Pipe, Meander, and the south section of Rattler were groomed last evening or this morning. This helped cover some of the exposed grass on Meander and The Pipe, though those areas still exist, so B skis still recommended. No tracks yet. RASC is working with the grooming team to resolve this. Again, use caution in the snowmaking and trail building areas.

Meander, The Pipe, Hammer, and parts of Rattler were groomed today. No track yet. Nice skiing. It is possible to ski down Storebakken (south side) but there is no runout at the bottom and the whole lower bowl is busy with snowmaking. You can use the access road around to get to the south part of Rattler and Hammer. B skis just because of some grass and occasional badger hole remnants.

The Pipe, Meander, and parts of Rattler were groomed today (no track). The skate deck is firm and mostly flat, nice skiing. There is grass showing in places on Meander and the Pipe, but no dirt or rocks except for a few spots where the badger has been working. There is no clear connection between lower Rattler and the top because of snow making operations, so the upper trails are best accessed from the upper parking lot. There was only one pass of the roller on Hammer.
