Entire system has been groomed the last two mornings and has setup very well. Temperatures are very favorable today and conditions are very good throughout the trail system.

Mighty nice. They always do a good job here and we found the classic to be just right, albeit a touch to the soft side, and that's not a criticism. Looked like the skate deck was tilled and a bit firmer. All good.

Most of the trails were freshly groomed and great. Out and back has not been groomed for a few days. Very soft with deep skate ruts.

Skate lanes were refreshed throughout the entire system Saturday night. Tracks were not touched as they are still in great shape from our Friday morning grooming. Firm conditions throughout the system.

Awesome conditions today at WinMan. Classic tracks deep and solid, skate deck was firm on about half the trails and slightly soft on others. No ice, debris or leaves anywhere. Skate deck snow depth was nine inches with about 18-20 inches snow in woods. Way to go WinMan!

Excellent conditions this morning at WinMan. Team has been out the last three mornings grooming which has really paid off as the deck has firmed up nicely and the tracks are in great shape.

Entire system had the skate lanes compacted and combed and the tracks reset. Temperatures are hovering around 31 deg this morning leaving some sticky, wet snow conditions. Otherwise, the deck is setting up nicely. Forecasted snow throughout the day so conditions may be changing as the day progresses. Grooming plans: We will be grooming again early Thursday morning.

Trails are in very good condition today. All the skate lanes were refreshed this morning and are firm and fast. Classic tracks were left alone as they have setup very well over the weekend with the amount of skiers we had visiting WinMan. Conditions are very favorable.

Great skiing today. Skied the 10k Loop and most of the orange loop. I used red wax and had a little trouble with icing up. Had to stop a few times to scrape off ice. I really like the festive vibe at this place.

Temperature was around 34 degrees. I classic skied the Red 10k loop plus the 3.3K out and back. I finished up with the Black loop for a total of 17.75K. I had good kick with my classic no-wax (fish scale) skis. I used Swix 10 glide wax. My glide was very good and the only problem was an occasional soft pole plant on the outside edge of the track. The track was solid. Control was good on the steep downhills. I did not encounter any icy conditions. Overall conditions I would rate as very good.
