The new snow is settling in. We are grooming after today's big races -- 500+ high school skiers really packed the snow down. Unfortunately, some folks decided to walk in the middle of the trails to see the race -- we are busy filling in footprints. Ugh! Classical tracks are set. Snow is good.

We are rolling/grooming. Good snow coverage with a few thin spots especially on Potlach and Big Ben trails. Hoping to set classic tracks by late afternoon.
Reminder: Junior High Ski practice this afternoon -- 70 of the nicest Middle school kids ever. Saturday, Dec 29 we host a High school ski meet with over 500 racers (Not open public skiing until 4 pm or so).

Grooming Scheduling [ Trails Open: All, ]
|
It's snowing! We have rolled all the trails once by noon. Planning on rolling again this afternoon if it continues to keep snowing. We got 4 to 6 inches this morning and it's still falling! Hallelujah! Make sure you have your MN Ski Pass and if you are not an Arb member, park down in the DNR lower lot.
Note: High school team to practice this afternoon and Jr high team here on Friday. Hosting a High School Ski meet on Saturday morning. You have been warned -- don't expect to ski the course on Saturday morning. (Hundreds of high school skiers!).

Great day for a walk at the Arb, but not the best conditions for skiing. Someone brought their rockiest rock skis out today, but the snow is about three leaves thick.

Sigh . . . don't even bother to bring your skis to Brainerd for Christmas. Bare, brown ground.

Still no snow . . . when you are out running this weekend on the 40 degree weather, be sure to check for ticks.

I am very sorry to report, we do not have snow yet. The good news? You can still dryland train on the Arb trails. Stop at the Visitors Center or the Kiosk to obtain your day pass to carry with you.
