Evening
Firsthand: Freestyle Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
After another couple inches of new snow, We had both the Tidd and Ginzu out along with a shoveler and set tracks on Green, Orange, and Yellow trails on Wednesday evening. While there are a few rocks visible if you look for them, most are completely covered now after shoveling. I skated all the trails and was quite happy with the results. We have yet to get a big snowfall but continue to add a few inches at a time and have a good solid base.

Afternoon
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, Rock skis ]
We groomed for the second time on Monday, rolling followed by Ginzu on Green, Orange, Yellow, and main Blue. The Red (Black Bay Loop) was done Saturday but is pretty rough. Skating only so far - not enough to set tracks. In the open on the flats the trails are quite nice; under cover and on ridges the cover is still thin. But you can skate easily. The New Blue Return Trail has been rolled twice but I would avoid that for now because it is really rocky.

We packed again and rolled the Green, Orange, and Yellow trails. Except for rock ridges the cover is great for this time of year! Deer hunting is still open back in the woods.
