Perfect tracks at WinMan today. Solid and deep, cruising on the flats, easy on the ups, and just fast enough on the downs. A spectacular ski!

Skied Friday with some new snow. First time here. I would definitely ski here again. Beautifully groomed and tracked. Lovely.

Mighty nice in WinMan Land today. They had enough snow to get out the tractor/power tiller and it does make a difference. Solid track and pole plants made for easy kicking. Hardly any brown to speak of so good skis were in order. Carpe diem and enjoy it while you can.

Skied for over three hours today, hit most of the classic trails. Conditions were excellent on most trails, but a few sections of trail hadn't been groomed since the previous night's snowfall so there was fresh snow that had been skied on by the time I hit the trails. There were some small connecting trails that had't been groomed for even longer, I suspect, as the classic tracks had several inches of fluffy snow around them. But this was the best natural snow I've skied on all year, a really fun day.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Trails are very good to excellent today. Tracks were reset system wide, and with all the hard work from the grooming team, the trails will be firm and fast, but not icy. Conditions should continue to firm up. With the freeze/thaw cycle last night, and not enough depth to use our power tiller, the team had to get a little more creative. We used the leveling drag to recondition and "tear up" the snow and then followed grooming the skate lane and setting new classic tracks. Result was excellent skiing and full trail system of happy skiers all day long.

Skied both the 10k and 7k loop at WinMan today. First time there. Trail conditions were excellent with very good tracks for classic skiers like me. A very pleasant outing.

WinMan was in excellent condition today. The sun broke through as we started and with well formed tracks we were off and running/gliding. Another wonderful choice in the area.

Good coverage, a couple inches of powder on top the recent grooming. Was still snowing when we left at 3pm. A couple hill climbs had just a bit of dirt/debris, but overall very nice.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Trails are in excellent condition right now. We had about 4" in total of new snow. Lake effect from early yesterday was compressed throughout the day then we got nearly an inch of good quality snow in the evening. All the trails were groomed this morning and completed right around 8:30am. Result is "white" everywhere for the first time this year. No areas of thin skate deck or debris on the classic tracks.

Fresh snow falling throughout the day over grooming. My first couple of loops were on a couple inches of fresh over the morning's grooming. Then the groomer came out and re-groomed the skate deck on the shorter loops, which I did next. Then, I finished up on the 4-5 km loops, which had not been regroomed. Slower conditions with cooler temps and fresh snow, but beautiful and fun.
