It is still a bit soft, hard to complain! As reported there is a little dirt churned up, and an exposed rock or two in places so B skis may be appropriate. The big news is that there were only 3-4 sets of walking tracks! Get out there skiers, that is the fewest walking tracks I have seen on groomed Chester trails in the nearly two decades that I have been skiing out there! Thanks to the City for all of the good signage making it clear that it is a ski trail and no longer a shared use trail.

Trail was being groomed as I started skiing around 11:00. Some thin and dirty spots, so I’ll suggest B skis, though I was on good skis. Great to see classic tracks set again at Chester. Love the new signs, as well.

24° F. Mint condition. Trails just groomed. So far the walkers have stayed on the side, except for the dog. :-)
Thank you, walkers! Some thin spots underneath new snow.
