Skated from the Old 32 lot this morning, both red and blue, heading North. Great conditions throughout, and despite the occasional spot of debris, there is so much snow and quality grooming that it is definitely good ski conditions. Observing the classic tracks, they were well set, full depth, and essentially free of debris every place we looked. While some of the long hills may test your mettle, this system is definitely worth the trip to get in miles and miles of quality skate or classic!

One inch of new snow that fell this morning on top of a nicely groomed, firm, flat base. Skied the trail from end to end. The skiing was excellent!

Yellowstone groomed golf course and trail from Sullivan Springs to north end. Single track set north end and double track set golf course. Other portions of trail groomed yesterday. With cold temps, trail should set up nicely. Conditions are very good.

Cold crisp morning with lots of sunshine and great cord! Skied from eggs golf course through the hills to Sullivan Springs Rd. Nice and firm and level skate deck, classic tracks were solid.

Groomed in the 2-3 inches of new snow from the golf course to Sullivan Springs Road including the hills behind the golf course and all shortcuts. Skate lane is flat and crisp, classic tracks are set throughout the area groomed today. The trail north of Sullivan Springs has 2-3 inches of new snow on top of a firm base (watch for grooming updates).

Lakewood is a winter wonderland! We kicked all of the trails north of the Old 32 Parking lot while another 2-3 inches of snow fell on the already perfectly groomed trails. Skiing in a snow globe, nothing better! Carpe Skiem!

Skated from Old 32 parking lot. A winter wonderland! The trails were not groomed but with 2-3” of new snow falling on a good firm base it was fabulous! The classic trail was in great shape also!

Trails are in very good condition. Skate skied around the hills behind the golf course and out to the Old 32 parking lot. Skate deck is firm and flat, classic tracks looked good, there was about a half inch of new snow on the trail as I finished and light snow was falling.

Our trails were totally regroomed today, by Tom Lane. I skate skied the black trail from 15k to 20k and back. First one on the new corduroy. The groomer buried most of the leaf problem. Lakewood will have excellent conditions for this weekend skiers.

Skied the golf course, the hills behind the golf course and out to the 15K marker. Freshly created cord on a flat and firm base, it was very very nice skiing! The classic tracks looked excellent also.
