Notes

About 17km total of trail loops near the St. Cloud penitentiary. Some scenic woods and great hills. Just a mile from the Mississippi, trails run on land that was formerly a farm and takes skiers through pastures, forests, and apple orchards. Trails are mostly easy to intermediate with a few challenging hills.

All skate lanes were freshened up today. North Loop, Orchard, Warm Up and Hilltop. Beautiful conditions out on the trails. Beat the winter grays and enjoy some fresh air skate skiing or classical. But first, Get your Great MN Ski Pass then go ski!

I was able to bust down the drifts on the Orchard Loop and the Warm Up loops tonight. I set a new skate deck and classic track on those trails as well as freshened up the skate deck at the North Loop. The Hilltop has some drifts so ski with caution,the skate and classic tracks are good, have an inch of snow on them. All the trails are in the best shape in years so get your Great MN Ski Pass and get out on our trails that are maintained by volunteers of the Nordic ski club of Central MN.

North Loop, Orchard, Warm-Up and Hill Top freshly groomed. No classic track on Hill-Top yet. Baltos is heavily drifted, right now our equipment cannot work through the drifts. Hope to open Baltos up later when the snow is more firm. Otherwise the trails are in great shape. Thanks to the hard work of the groomers!

An inch of new snow groomed in nicely. All trails have new classic tracks set and skate lanes freshened up on the south trails. Balto’s is open and has a very nice skate deck. Lyle is working on the North Loop as I type this.
