Pretty good. Super fast snow. The trails were getting a little bit beat up from use and a few inconsiderate pedestrians. But overall, definitely worth it. Campground was groomed for both classic and skating.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Good skis ]
All trails had been groomed and tracked after the recent snow. Conditions were much better than they were when I skied them last Thursday. The parking lot was full of cars and the trails were showing the signs of heavy use. Track speed was medium. The downhills were fast. Control on the downhills was fair to good. I still managed to fall more than once. It would be nice if the hikers stayed off the groomed trails like they are supposed to.

Trails groomed and track set this afternoon. Thanks grooming team! A bit soft and slow. Campground skate deck only partially groomed when I passed it. Looked soft. Not many leaves nor sticks in the track. 4-7" base.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Both 
[ B skis ]
The trail report recording indicated the trails had been rolled but not tracked so I thought the trails might be suitable for skating. However, the trail was very uneven and quite rough. Skating did not work because of that so I tried classic skiing. That worked better but I would rate conditions as poor to fair. There was no track and the surface was uneven. I walked down all the hills as control was not good because of the rough surface. I skied the entire system. It took much longer than normal but it was good to get out.

Morning
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
Surprisingly good conditions for only 4-6 inches of snow over a frozen base. Cold temps, and a rolling of the trails made for complete coverage and fast glide. No tracks set as the snow isn't deep enough.
