Jerry has done a masterful job. Really good skiing today and it should persist with cold temps!

Jerry groomed it this afternnoon, and it was even better than last Friday due to the 1.5 - 2 inch add-on. All the upper and lower trail were rolled except for the Western Woods. There's a new 50-60 yard section in the Eastern Woods that cuts out two downhill 90 degree turns if you're skiing clockwise. Still rock skiing, but I didn't hit anything today.

Three days of skiing in early November! Approximately 3.5-4 km groomed. Expect leaves, some grass showing through, a few rocks/roots/bare spots but also some stretches in midseason form. Amazing grooming get us skiing on only about 1" of base. Prairie sections are the best, take care in any woods area for rocks and tree debris. No tracks but there were a few classic folks out this morning just appreciating real snow!

The Fox Hill micro-climate sent us about 6" of wet, heavy clipper snow on Wednesday. Jerry packed and rolled what's there into a corduroy that firmed up nicely. Occasional rocks/roots because of the very thin cover but there were sections of 100-200yds where it seemed like mid-season skiing. The upper fields are the safest bet, there is a groomed section into the woods that loops back to the upper fields but use caution there. Corkscrew loop is doable but with caution. Summary: really appreciated the chance to get out on real snow on Nov 7th.

The upper fields are groomed for skating, about 1.5 miles. It looks like good coverage but will probably melt from the bottom up.
