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.

Observation Scheduling 
Warning: Do not try and reach the Lester Amity Ski Trails by road. Although the ski trails have been groomed, Occidental Blvd / 7 Bridges Road has not been plowed, and is not driveable. Tuesday evening, me and my neighbors helped get four cars free which had gotten stuck below the first bridge. Please stay away! You can not reach the parking lot at The Deeps, let alone the Amity Ski Chalet, at this time. You can park at Lester Park playground down by Superior Street.

Firsthand: Classic 
[ Rock skis ]
The lower loops are rolled but not tracked, up to and including D. There's a skier-set track on the upper loops. The rolled portions are very bumpy and thin, but skiable. The ungroomed loops made for better skiing. Overall, way better than not skiing.
