Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Plenty of snow. Looks like it was groomed this morning, but 4-6 inches of fluff had covered it up. Skating through the lightest of powder was more fun than a chore. The ruts from a week ago are gone. Skate deck was smooth. Tracks were skied in but well set under the new stuff. Should be another great weekend on these trails.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Single temps last night. Groomers did not go out today. Groomers may head out tomorrow but are watching the weather to come. Skate lane was solid and classic tracks were great on the less skied trails. Even with the sun and temps in the low 20's, tracks were icy. Families were enjoying the trails during spring break.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Single digit temps last night made grooming for the skate deck perfect. Tracks were reset but not real deep as it would have made for icy conditions. Sunshine and 14° did not keep folks away.

Had a great afternoon skiing novice trail. From the overnight snow, the tracks and skate deck were not icy. 20° and warm sun. Tolerable wind chill. Talked with another skier who drove from Chicago to catch some spring snow.

Morning
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
With the new snow and colder temperatures the groomers were able to cleanup the skate lane and set the tracks. The wind might cause some drifting but the trails are firm and ready to go. They plan to go out again tomorrow morning with the Pisten Bully.

The groomers had been out and groomed the Novice and Wolverine Loop while I was there. New tracks were fast and the skate lane looked good. We have received about 4 inches of new snow. It is wetter and we had some rain yesterday but the trails are in great shape with a lot of base. Spring skiing should be excellent this weekend.

What a great ski this afternoon striding novice loop a few times. The tracks were in excellent shape. Skate deck was a bit soft and very doable. Great grooming still happening with hardly any debris on trails. Excellent conditions.
