Fantastic classic conditions this morning. Grooming from Friday holding up very well. Tracks were deep and well defined.

Unexpectedly surprised to see fresh grooming from this morning, but several parts were not skied upon at 2:30 pm, before I arrived. Absolutely fantastic no wax conditions. My bride and I had a real fun time. The water was standing in a couple places but easily avoided.

I headed out to Piedmont today wondering if I could still use good skis... much to my delight not only could I use my good skis, the groomers had just worked their magic! What a treat it was to ski on perfectly groomed new tracks! They were almost able to completely erase the deep gouges left by some runner who made his way up the trail a couple of days ago! Watch out for water or ice depending upon when you go in two places. One is on a flat, the other is the last hill back towards the parking lot.

Skied Monday morning and no grooming had occurred. Enough people had skied that there was a little bit of a trail. It wasn't great but it was OK. Only did the short intermediate loop that included the Overlook.

The trails were in beautiful shape. I arrived about 11:45 and the parking lot was full, but there weren't that many skiers. The tracks were nice and sharp, and the corduroy looked ideal. The trees blocked the wind, making it a very nice day to be out. There are a couple spots where some branches need to be trimmed back, but nothing that kept me from doing a few laps. Enjoy them!

It was a very nice afternoon. The tracks were good. There were two porcupines in trees. There was one on the blue loop halfway down the hill, the other one was on the Dippety Dew trail (it was a little bit back in the woods). There had been a dog on the trail, so there were paw prints on the trail.

Great conditions. Look for the porcupine up in the big tree on the left overhanging the trail about 2/3 down EZ Ryder. Third time I have seen it there. Enjoy!

Nice! Tracks are firm, kick is good. A little soft on some of the outside pole plants, but overall very nice skiing in the city. Get out there!

Very good conditions at Piedmont. There are a few areas with sticks and leaves in the trail, but overall the snow is great - fast, but not icy. The hoarfrost on the trees made for beautiful scenery as well.

Four inches plus of new snow. I got to the trail while it was being groomed. It was fully groomed by the time that I left. Great conditions. The newly set tracks creating stable skiing. Get out before it gets cold again.
