Most trails are tracked with the Piston Bully and in very good condition with some oak leaves here and there. Main deck a bit soft but very skiable. Was told all trails will be groomed tomorrow. Each day it seems to firm up after our 9" snow on Sunday. Come on out and enjoy our beautiful trails.

The fresh tracks were great on all groomed trails that I skied. The tracks were firmer than the skate lane surface. Just a very few leaves to contend with. It was to finally nice be skiing on some fresh snow around here. A few trails only had tracks set on one side instead of both as usual. Nice warm trail head lodge to enjoy and lit trails for night skiing. Beautiful scenery. Get to Iola and ski!

Skied green and inner blue and the field. Great coverage, no bare spots, no icy spots, firm deck with great plenty of purchase. Enjoyed every minute.

Skate-skied blue and green loops. Both groomed, firm, and fast; and with no icy spots. From what I saw -- the black loop has been groomed too. The fields have been groomed as well. Likewise: fast and firm but not icy. Classical tracks have not been groomed, and are full of debris and icy. The Main Street may be skiable classically.

Great snow cover and no debris on the trails. All trails are open and groomed well. Warm, soft snow makes the trails a bit slow. Beautiful snow on the trees.

Classic skied here today. The tracks were very good, even with a lot of skier traffic. "The Field" tracks were excellent. They were full depth and firm. The skate lane was soft. Great to see several inches of new snow! Skiing will be fantastic this coming week for sure. Thank you to P.J. for the early grooming of the snow today so that we all could enjoy it.

Plenty of coverage at Iola with the fresh snow. It was a bit slow and soft today but still great skiing. It should be perfect after it sets up.

Classic skied in 36 degree temps with a slight mist falling. The fresh 1-2 inches from last night snow was being groomed in upon our arrival at noon. Tracks formed at 3/4 depth were cut shortly after our arrival offering good, albeit slow striding. Always worth the trip! Plenty of snow!! Carpe Skiem!

The green and blue trails were tilled with the PistonBully last night. Skating is very good on the green and on the tangent trail/race start area along Cty MM. Skating is fair to good on the blue. Expect some thin and icy spots on the blue. The field wasn't regroomed but still skied well. Overall we have approximately 12 km of decent skating. Classic tracks on the green and blue are very icy and skied out in some sections.

All trails (green, blue, black) are open for skating. Classic tracks were set on the green and blue trails today. Expect a few thin spots in the tracks and skate lanes along with softer conditions in the skate lanes on some sections. Conditions are good. Use B skis to be safe but good skis could get the nod too.
