Nine Mile received nearly 8" of snow yesterday. Though we were starting with nearly no base, the trails are looking to be in very good condition with a base of about 5". The PistenBully is out and we are laying classic track as well as a good comb on the skate lane. As of 9 am, the lighted loop. Leo's loop and 6k have been completed. The plan is to also lay track on the 10k and 20k today. Grooming will continue through the weekend.

I was on the lighted trails tonight. I was impressed with the trails since snow fall hasn’t been the greatest. A few bare spots but nothing that interfered with me skiing. Bare spots were mostly under some trees. I was able to ski without catching. Thank you.

Conditions at Nine Mile are pretty good. We've been able to put a comb on almost all the trails now. Most have classic tracks as well. The classic tracks are in pretty good shape for the most part. There are still areas where the ground is showing through due to lack of snow. We are doing routine maintenance on the trails daily to keep them in the best condition possible.

The second annual Red Bull Winter Triathlon was held at 9 mile today. Last year I was part of a relay team and really missed not participating this year. Looked like another very successful and well run event. I did get out on the trails and found the 1 1/2 inches of fresh snow we got overnight made for an opportunity to ski on a firm base with powder on-top. Actually prefer to get out before the groomers when there is less than 2” of new snow . Didn’t make it out on the trails until early afternoon but wasn’t disappointed. Light skier traffic once out on the 20 k ( bushwhacker ridge ) and the alps hadn’t even been visited at all. The fresh snow on the firm 2”- 3” of maintained base evened things out and the downhill decent’s were very enjoyable, like backcountry skiing. Great hill work training for this year’s Birkie event.

Considering still not much snow to work with the groomers did an excellent job. There are plenty of spots however where you can see the ground through the snow and occasional gravel. B skis might be OK and you’ll be dodging a lot of dark spots but rocks skis might be a good choice as well. Enjoy.

With the snow over the weekend, conditions have improved at Nine Mile. Today, we were able to bring out the Tidd Tech and begin to comb trails and set some classic track. All trails except the 20k and Alps have been rolled. Main Street, Lighted Loop and Y at this point have a comb for skate skiing and classic tracks. The classic tracks are in pretty good conditions but beware of areas of less snow along with debris. Conditions are improving! With a few more inches of base, we're hopeful of the PistenBully making it's debut voyage!

Fair to good. Trails have been rolled only, yet mostly very even and firm. Surprised with what little snow we have how good the base has been maintained. Skied the 20 k loop basically and did not hit any rocks and saw almost no debris on the trail system. Had a very good training ski and very thankful for the great grooming that has been accomplished with so little to work with. No tracks set for classic skiing.
