Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Good skis ]
We've had a lot of snow this past week and its difficult to keep up. The Prelude and Lake Loops are packed and groomed and there is a track set on the Inner and Outer Prelude. The rest of the trail beyond Pincherry Junction needs to be packed before it can be groomed (this part of the trail is good for backcountry skiing if so interested). Stay tuned for further updates.

Afternoon
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Good skis ]
We got a couple of inches of new snow today, just before I groomed. Groomed and set track on inner and outer Prelude loops, groom and track should set up well with cold weather. Please help by picking up sticks / branches off the trail as you ski. Remember to get your ski pass if you haven't already done so.

I skied classical on the Lake Loop and Prelude, track was pretty good. I had groomed and set track on Monday up to Z junction. Skate lane was groomed up to Tower end yesterday by Ryan G. and looked very good. The trail has hardened up nice after recent cold weather, get out and ski!
