Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Good skis ]
We groomed 2 inches of new snow early this morning, we reset 30 km of tracks this morning and regroomed most of the skate lanes...and then it snowed another 3 inches this afternoon and is still snowing. Groomers will be back out in the early morning. We are skiing on 45 km of trail.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
Winter wonderland with fresh snow coming down in the morning and sunshine in the afternoon. Parking lot was nearly full but with so many trails open they did not feel busy. Skiing was slow due to all the fresh ungroomed snow but still gorgeous and well worth the drive. Should firm up nicely with a grooming and cool temps tonight.

Afternoon
Grooming Scheduling 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
We are opening for the season Saturday at 9 am. We have been grooming with three groomers since last Saturday to establish a good base frozen and wide. 40 Km is open, 25 km tracked on the side of the skate lanes, 30 km skating. Thin but very skiable, ice in the low areas...common sense says don't try your race skis on the first ski here.
Note: SKI SHOP SALE tomorrow, 9-4. Trails open 9-4 CST.

Grooming Scheduling 
[ Trails: Closed, B skis ]
We Ginzu groomed about 25 km of combination trail and 7 km of classic only trail. We are working on a few wet areas over the next few days before we open. As of today we are planning on opening Saturday and the SKI SHOP SALE will be on as well. We hope to have about 40 km open and in pretty good shape if our grooming and freezing cycles go as scheduled.

Morning
Grooming 
[ Trails: Closed, B skis ]
We packed about 35-40 km of trail today after receiving close to 2 feet of snow. We plan on being back out in the morning to pack additional KM and perhaps start grooming what has been packed and frozen. We plan on opening Thursday or Friday next week. Stay tune for ski conditions and opening date.
