It is great to get out to ski in mid April. Needless to say the trail is slow, but what a nice workout.

I was compacting trails when our machine failed for a second time. When the machine is returned next week I'll groom what I can to test things out. With the warm temps forecasted I can't promise much. This was unfortunate for us all.

The trail is not groomed. Enough classic skiers have been on the trail, so a decent track is there to follow.

I was out this morning packing trails. After only one round I ran into equipment problems. There's only a small segment with a track set and nothing for a skate lane. I'm not sure how long we're down for. Sorry for the bad news! Pioneer Creek is surrounded by plenty of other beautiful systems to visit while in the neighborhood. Have great week!

All trails are groomed and classic tracks are set. Trails are excellent with a firm skate lane set from last nights cold temps. There's plenty of tree debris still falling from the storm. On Saturday, Conover is hosting Blizzard Blast at the town park. There is a sleigh ride that crosses the ski trail near the trail head, please be careful for ruts! What a beautiful day to be out. Enjoy the trails!

All trails were compacted yesterday and today. I plan to cut and level early tomorrow morning. With the warm temps I don't plan to have a track set until Friday. With this amount of snow packing and cleaning up is a very slow process. Be patient, the weekend is not far away!
