There was freezing drizzle that may hit the area on Wednesday, but the light dusting of snow Wednesday night covered up the crusty snow and made for great classic conditions. Lookout point was a nice hike to see the great view.

Base 24+ inches. Skate lanes on our most popular trails were groomed on Tuesday evening. Classic tracks throughout the system are still in good shape from our previous groom.

Base 24+ inches. All trails were groomed for classic and skate skiing tonight. We've finally been able to tame the effects of last weeks massive snowfall and put our trails back into great shape.

Base 24+ inches. 3 to 4 inches of new snow on Friday. A grooming attempt was made on Friday night but our equipment clogged due to the wetness of the snow and near thawing temperature. Our easier trails were rolled with subpar results. As soon as the temperature decreases we will begin to groom again.

Classic skied the Pincushion system this afternoon, after 3 to 4 inches of fresh snow overnight. No new grooming had been done yet but skier tracks were in place over most of the trails. Slow going but the base underneath the fresh snow seemed firm, much to my surprise and strong poling was possible. Temps were around freezing and Swix VR45 worked well for kick. Should be great after next grooming.

Conditions are very good at Pincushion today. About one half of the trail system has been groomed for both classic and skate after Saturdays 20" of new snow. Plans are to have the entire system groomed for both skate and classic by tomorrow.

Base 24+ inches. 18 to 20 inches of new snow. All trails groomed with variable results due to Bunyanesque snowfall. Expect soft and lumpy skate lanes, poorly defined or nonexistent classic tracks, ridges and clods strewn about the system. Conditions will improve as the snow firms up and additional grooming occurs. Ski with caution.

Base 16+ inches. 5 to 6 inches of new snow today. All trails were groomed for classic and skate skiing on Tuesday evening.

Base 12+ inches. 3 to 4 inches of new snow on Thursday. All trails were groomed for classic and skate skiing on Thursday evening.

Base Depth: 8-9 inches. Snowfall Last 24 hours: 1 inch. Season Snowfall Total: 41 inches. Sunday night's high wind event caused some blowing and drifting snow on the trails so we did a partial groom of the system. Skate lanes were generally combed and some of the classic tracks were reset. Grooming plans: We are anticipating the potential of significant snowfall and very cold temperatures Wednesday into Thursday so we will hold off on a full system groom until the forecast firms up. We expect to have all trails fully prepared for the upcoming weekend.
