Short, easy ski today as I have a cold. And not much new to report other than trails remain in good shape. We skied some sections that have had less traffic and they are quite good. We also came upon a short 5 meter section on Finland that is slush-ice. Apparently the culvert below froze solid and even the minimal melt has resulted in the impounded water overflowing onto the trail. Easy enough to ski through though. All-in-all with the milder temperatures (mid-20s), nice skiing.

Trails were groomed yesterday, and are in very good condition. Very firm skate deck. Classical tracks remain in great shape but the wind had littered some areas with a few leaves - emphasize few. Coverage is good, no bare spots to mention.

Conditions as same as yesterday, but somewhat faster given the warmer temperatures. Classical tracks remain faster. Nice skiing!

Semester is ending and I am finally able to get on the skis. Skiing today, like Friday and Saturday, has been pretty good. Trail coverage is quite good. Soft in spots, slow given the temperatures, but not too bad. As of today, the skate deck has seen a fair bit of traffic and thus a tad rough in spots, but also not bad. Double-poled in the tracks on and off and they are fast and in great shape. Overall good skiing and sure beats riding the trainer!

Trails were groomed earlier today. The skate lane had set up very nice. Best skating I have had this year. The groomer was setting classic track as I was leaving.
