Light and fluffy snow skied into the tracks. The tracks were quite fast. Some debris, but it didn't bother with the cold temperatures and coating of cold snow.

As of lunchtime today, the trails had not been re-groomed after the inch or two of new fluff. One or both sets of tracks are in skied-in throughout, though, and they're still in great shape from last week. There were almost no leaves and no other debris.

3F. Sunny breezy. The tracks couldn’t be more perfect. They must have been set yesterday before the temperature dropped 30 degrees in two hours.

Three inches of light fluffy snow made the track a bit slow. There was a single skied in track. Good skiing, but it should be great with grooming.

The latest snowfall covered up most of the rough spots I saw last week. Tracks are solid with a few leaves here and there. It was a treat to ski there this morning!

We classic skied Piedmont today in the early afternoon and it was very well used. The skate deck, transitions, any flatter bigger areas were concrete with not much of an edge at all. The tracks were in pretty good shape except for parts of the 1k. Hopefully some grooming can happen.

Everything is groomed and set up nicely with only a few soft pole plants. A couple spots have dirt popping up which are easily avoided - I used my good skis and was okay avoiding these. There's dirt near the top of the big hill but the rest of the downhill is fine. The tracks are beautiful - get out and enjoy them in the new year!

Lots of Piedmont reports from me, but the trail conditions are too fun not to share! The trails haven’t been groomed since midday yesterday, but the tracks are well-skied-in. The downhills are mostly snowplowed but fluffy enough that they’re not a problem. Wonderful soft, smooth conditions—highly recommend!

Beautiful fresh, soft snow conditions, and fully groomed. The tracks were not super deep or firm, but the skiing is excellent nonetheless. As the sign asks, what could be better?

I classic skied Piedmont early afternoon today. I did two complete laps. The first lap was good, the second lap was very mushy. Piedmont has just enough snow to get by, but this warm weather may be the end of that. It was 30° on my car when I left the parking lot to ski and 50° when I got back an hour and a half later. There were some small bare spots along the trail, with a few rocks showing and the usual twigs, but it was better than I thought it would be. You can avoid trouble spots quite easily.
