Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ B skis ]
I skied from the new Jensen trail trailhead. Conditions were pretty good, I used my B skis and did not hit anything. I would not recommend using your best skis. Trails were not groomed but someone had skied before me and left a nice track.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ B skis ]
10 inches of new snow in open areas, 6 to 8 inches in the forest. No trails are packed or tracked, but people have been skiing on them making them easy to use. Areas that are in wetlands may experience slight sections of open water.

Afternoon
Observation 
4-5" of unpacked and ungroomed light snow cover the trails. Looks like enough to ski without too much nicking of your rock skis. Note: New trailhead at Jensen and Hwy 1 (see locator map). (Flathorn trailhead closed indefinitely due to last summer's major rain event that washed away 3 of our 4 critical bridges.).
