Fairly icy. Not the best track - old, but a beautiful morning. The largest downhill near the end (which is not very large) was a bit fast, rough and awkward for my mediocre skills.

Trail was packed and tracked on Thursday after 6" of new snow. Warmer daytime temps will soften the trail during the day but there is still a lot of snow out there. Enjoy!

Tracks in really nice condition. Just a little tree debris on the trail but that's the tradeoff for the beautiful setting.

The trail was packed very well and a classic track was set. The trail is looking great for skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, and skijoring. Please be sure to stay out of the classic tracks as the trail width allows.

First time on trail. Single classic tracks with snowshoeing and skijoring next to tracks. Seems to work just fine. Really beautiful trail. Very intimate and next to the pines. Plenty of snow.

Observation 
[ Trails Open: All, B skis ]
A warm weekend followed by an inch of rain and a return to cold temps has made grooming challenging due to the amount of ice and lack of fresh snow. Tracks were not able to be re-set this week. However, the conditions allow for easy walking outside the classic tracks with little need for snowshoes. Icy conditions with a dusting of snow will make for a very fast-skiing trail, so exercise caution.

Good. Just enough snow on top of icy crust for some kick. Very blustery, with some debris on trail. Enjoyed both the tall pines and the areas that have been opened by balsam removal and selective logging.

The trail was snowmobile packed and classic tracks were set. Tracks should set up well with cold temp. Happy skiing!

The trail was packed, and a track was set. There is a lot of fine tree debris on the trail from the last few windy nights. Please be sure to pick up dog waste! There was a lot of it on the trail this time around.
