Wednesdays snowstorm wreaked havoc on our trail system. Trees and branches are down all over, so clearing trails is a slow process. We were able to set track on A. We also cleared D. Grooming plans: Dave will groom D Saturday morning. The Lodge will be open with a fire going. The scenery is great and we have a lot of snow. We plan to work on another loop in the morning. Big thanks to Howie for coming up from Esky today with his chainsaw.

Good skating with trails recently combed with Ginzu. Debris negligible and deck good with some camel humping down the middle in place but not bad. Tracks were set on some trails and on others 2" of new snow was skied down. NMU's Nordic Teams were there with coach Sten getting in some Ks too. Great day.

Grooming has made head-way with the twenty plus inches of snow. Deck is flatter and setting up nicely. Great ski with good skis. Even firm, deep tracks were set.

While the trails were rolled out, you had to stay on the camel's back or fall into the classic tracks on either side. Still decent and fun.
