Trails were in great shape. The tracks were cut nicely and the skate deck looked good. Perfect coverage and no debris on trail.

Amazing conditions out there and perfect skiing weather today. Thank you to the groomers who have kept it so nice and the tracks nice and deep! No spots of ice, rocks, slush, or anything to worry about - just perfect! Enjoy the fresh air!

19 degrees F, sunny, very little wind, noon at Lester. Fast Wax teal gave great glide, swix green hard wax grave plenty of kick. How good was it today? I have been skiing Lester ski trails for 41 seasons now. I have never had a more perfect classic track, or had a more beautiful ski than what the groomers and the woods gave me and Beth today. I cannot imagine better skiing, and I have a pretty good imagination.

Super good! Classic and skate in great condition. Chalet is open which is great on this cool day.

Great conditions under the lights Friday night. 20 degrees, no wind, and lots of fresh snow. The tracks were good and everything was covered nicely. It was slow going with the fresh powder, but really enjoyable.

Conditions are wonderful at Lester. All irregularities are gone now with the consistent grooming. Trails today were freshly groomed with a bit of fresh powder on top. Skate lane was great. A little sugary on the steep uphills. Classic tracks looked great. For some reason groomers missed the spur that goes steeply down to the chalet then back to the main loop. The steep downhill was fun in the powder. Get out and enjoy!

Perfect conditions on the main loop. Freshly groomed after Monday/Tuesday snow. Skate deck was great, classic tracks looked great as well.

The coverage and grooming were really good. The initial hill up from the bottom usually has bare spots this time of year, but with the big snow fall was completely covered. I found only a couple of thin spots the whole way. About the only thing that would keep me from using good skis is that there was a fair amount of debris on the trail from the wind that accompanied the blizzard. The final downhill to the bottom has a lot of pine debris on it, but the upper trails are pretty clear.

Skied Lester this morning. All trails are in great shape. Felt like Spring skiing with warmer weather.

Groomers did an excellent job getting the trail in good shape. Tracks are excellent now. Soft pole plants by tracks but excellent on most of skate deck. Trails well used as of 5pm Saturday but no complaints, so happy to have midwinter conditions already!
