Groomed but not tracked for classical. Some skaters noted difficult conditions from uneven surface.

All trails have cleared of fallen trees and have been packed - no track set due to equipment issues. Base of 5-6". Some debris present here and there from winds and downed tree removal.

Skied the green and brown. Lots of snow... a few areas where they cleared trees there is some debris left from that. I think most of the trails are groomed, I didn't ski yellow or red but where they crossed the green trail they appeared to be groomed. The crew was out working while I was Skiing. Definitely worth trying.

All of the trails at Zillmer are mostly down to bare ground. Zillmer Trails are currently closed to skiers.

Over a couple dozen skiers out today, happily enjoying the great weather in the low 30s and mostly sunny with no wind. No recent grooming, although two clippers have passed through the region, dumping three inches of fluffy snow. I skied the Brown and Red loops five times each. It was the fifth time on the Red loop that I hit a rock on the downhill after the 1.5-mile marker that did some damage to my rock skis. They are my rock skis, so no biggie, and I was able to fix most of the damage. There are rocks out there in several spots, just lurking below the surface, so beware if you ski there. The stream is frozen over. Grade C- for rock skiing, F for good skis. Scenery/weather: A.

1 PM Saturday 14 degrees, snow depth 2in. Skated the red trail. Decent ski deck. Sadly, some humans and their dogs have been walking on the trail. The divots are down to the base ice layer and has made strides and glides less ideal. I'm sure they can be groomed out. Use caution.

All trails have been groomed, no tracks set. There are thin areas throughout, but the overnight 0.5"-1" snow helped the skate deck groom up nicely. Rocks and ground debris are still apparent on yellow.

All trails have been groomed -- no track set. Some areas still with 1-2inch snow, but there are many thin areas throughout all trails. The first half of yellow is very thin with a handful of bare spots. Rocks are becoming exposed, especially on hills.

Zillmer is in bad shape. Lots of rocks emerging everywhere, except the Brown trail. Some good areas, but pretty thin in many others. Lots of cones in the pines. Grooming hasn't occurred in about a week. I was careful and my skis were fine, but I won't go back until we get another snowstorm. I give the conditions D-.

Skied all trails except the first part of the yellow. Red and brown are pretty good. Rocks on the last big down hill on the yellow. Would not recommend it. All trails haven't been groomed since last week.
