Notes

Maintained by Elk River Nordic Nordic Ski Club, these trails have become a hot-spot for fantastic skiing in the North Metro. Trails are largely wooded over rolling terrain, but some sections have good climbs and descents. Trails consist of several interconnected loops and are aptly named--be sure to check out the "Top-of-the-World" and "Gravity Box" as well as "Wash Pond Flats" to the NE of the biathlon range. There is not a warming shack, but at least one port-o-potty at the main parking lot. Primarily groomed for skate (not always tracked for classic).

I skied Woodlands the last three days including this morning. Despite our low snow total of 3", conditions have been very good with full coverage on full outer loop including the paved portion. Thanks to the groomers for an excellent job with such limited snow.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Rock skis ]
Babe and Buckthorn Bob rolled our three new inches(could have used a couple more) on the green trails. Ancient One was out earlier on the winter walking trails and start area. Lumberjack rolled the paved sections with the ATV due to thin coverage. We did a base prep roll on Tuesday. There is 100% coverage, but it is thin, especially on the paved sections. Rock skis for sure. Ski with caution if you do.
