Doan Lake trails groomed and new classic tracks set this morning. The snow is super dry from the crazy cold temperatures. The tracks are soft and may set up OK or they may need more snow and warmer temperatures. Plenty of drifts along the east side of the lake. I barreled thru pretty fast so tracks are likely squirrelly. The grooming plan is to finish the Trout Lake trails this afternoon.

Doan Lake Trails rolled, feathered, and classic tracks set. Lots of snow and conditions are soft. I haven't had the groomer out yet so trail is not super flat. Good skiing though. Doan Trailhead parking lot is plowed. Grooming plans: Trout trails maybe later today.

5" of wet heavy snow and near freezing temperatures. Grooming plans: We will wait till the temperatures drop and the snow dries out a little before grooming.
