Notes

The Lester-Amity trail offers 15K of varied terrain for beginner to experienced skiers through pine, aspen, and birch forests. An additional 3K circles the Lester Park Golf Course and is accessible from the main Lester-Amity Trail. The openness of the golf course offers an excellent place for beginning cross-country skiers, and several short cuts are available. There is also a 5K trail portion that is lit in the mornings and evenings.

Trails have been groomed after the storm! There is a lot of powder on the trails. Classic tracks in great shape. Skate tracks were digging through some fluff.

Trail freshly groomed this morning. It's warm and some of trail is sugary, some perfect. It was a great ski and fast conditions. It may be a little rutted when it freezes. No bare spots.

Excellent skiing at Lester this morning. Tracks were overall very good, and the skate deck also looked good though still a bit soft. Two ice patches between B and C, and the N loop was closed (guessing due to ice). Very little glazing in the tracks. Enjoy!

Freshly groomed today! No tracks on L hill or on Hockey hill for some reason. The tracks are nice and hard. Hoping we can try to preserve them and not skate over or herringbone on top of them. They're so perfect. We're back to hard wax! Enjoy!

Quiet evening! Trails have not been groomed and skate area had lots of lumps of fresh snow. Very slow skiing but still lots of fun. Would recommend more wax than I had on (haha).

First tracks in great conditions early Monday morning. Slow going in the fresh snow, but amazingly pretty.
