All loops were packed and leveled after our 12" of snow yesterday. The blue segment to the shelter was tracked. All of the yellow loop was tracked. The middle green segment was tracked. The back loop of the red back to the parking lot was tracked. The trail is still soft and needs to harden up before more track is laid. Lots of debris from the strong winds last night.

After 15" of snow yesterday it took most of the day to roll the trail. It was leveled late this afternoon. Trail will be leveled again and tracked tomorrow. Thanks!

Joanie and I skied all the trails (and some twice) here this morning before the snow came. Great conditions at this nicely double-tracked classic-only system. The grooming held up well from Friday due to limited use. The NHAL State Forest really takes care of their ski trails with frequent grooming and should be a model for other DNR properties!

We received about 6" of snow on the Madeline trail last night! I was able to roll the trail to pack in the new fluffy snow. Then groomed, the tracked laid perfectly and looks great! Bring your good skis but be careful for low hanging branches from the ice storm earlier in the week.
