Excellent conditions. Firm tracks with a trace of new snow in them. They'll be fast after we skied them in. Skate deck was firm, looked lovely.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Washburn had its skate deck refurbished yesterday, but unfortunately it froze again.   This has left Washburn dangerous.  As for the classic tracks they were not touched yesterday, and are dangerously icy.   We would recommend that skiers stay off of Washburn until it has been regroomed. Our groomers plan to be out on Wednesday.

Firsthand: Classic Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Skied Washburn early this afternoon. Everything is in great shape. Grooming plans for skate deck to be cleaned up tonight, as well as tomorrow evening. The classic tracks are hanging in there nicely. Should be primed for weekend skiing.

What a pleasant surprise from yesterday’s ungroomed trails attempt. In some cases, I was the first on fresh corduroy trails. Skiing was a blast and covered all skate trails.

Excellent skiing on the south trails. Track was very good with few leaves and branches in track. Snow is almost perfect. Saw a nice goshawk.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
While the entire system was groomed on Saturday, today we reset the skate deck. The classic tracks from Saturday were not touched, as they are in good condition.

Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Overall the classic conditions are good. Pole plants and tracks are solid. The only reason I wouldn’t rate things as excellent is due to a lot of leaves in the track, which of course has nothing to do with grooming. The skate surface appears to have been regroomed since yesterday and looked great.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
The entire trail system has been worked on over the past two days. We received about 3 inches of snow on Sunday. This provided us the opportunity to wipe out the old classic tracks and put in new ones. Along with that, the skate deck was resurfaced. Both should firm up nicely with cold temperatures.
