Nice variety of terrain on mostly wooded trails adjacent to commercial ski area. Both classical and skating tracks. On some Saturdays, breakfast is served at a warming house halfway down the trail--call for availability. 1.5km lighted.Trail Reports

All trails have the skate lane groomed. They have had very little use due to the cold. Skate lane was very slow. Classic track had not been set on all the trails. The track that has been set looks very nice.

Trails were freshly groomed. The skate lane was soft and slow. Most of the trails have new classic track that set very nicely.

Marc the groomer was finishing up as I arrived, so trails had pristine corduroy over a firm deck. Colder temperature led to slower, but not slow skiing. Coverage remains excellent, with little in the way of debris littering the trails despite windy conditions as of late.

Regroomed the skating deck. Touched up the classic track on finland because of drifting. The rest of the track is skiable with a dusting of powder in the track. Alot of deer on the trail. Look for them in the pines and sumac.

About 1/2 to 1 inch of new hoar frost (maybe some snow) over a very hard skate deck. The underlying deck is a tad softer in a few places. Moderately but not super fast. Overall very good conditions.

Newly groomed. Skate deck was very firm this morning and slightly glazed making for fast skiing. Did some double-poling in the tracks that are in very good shape, and they seemed equally fast.

All of the trails were recently groomed and in excellent condition! Finland is open again and is in great shape other than some large drifts in a couple of locations. The skate deck was firm and very fast!

Trails are in great shape for the weekend. I opened up Finland today. Its not perfectly flat because of the drifts. All trails have skating lane and classic tracks. A lot of deer on the trails.

Unfortunately the beautifully groomed trails of yesterday are now covered with 1-2 inches of new, moist snow. Still fine skating if a bit slow. Classical tracks were getting filled-in.

Trails were being groomed as we skied this afternoon (3-4:30). Skate deck is in very good condition, firm but not rock hard. Classical tracks were also in very good shape along the sections of the trail system we skied. Nice!
