Enjoyed skiing the scenic skate loop at gooseberry. Fast conditions but definitely some debris on trails (leaves, other non damaging but annoying schmutz). Skate lane has some slight ruts from the grooming equipment that can throw you off a bit.

Skied a classic Loop on the north side of 61. Trails in very good condition. Good track throughout, no ice. A fair amount of debris in spots (cedar and pine needles, some twigs, downed trees have been cleaned up).

Skied the easy loop down by the lake and the upper right loops. Trails were freshly groomed and tracked and in very good to excellent condition. Some easy to deal with bare spots by the lake and some soft spots in the woods. Thanks to the groomer for doing a great job.

We skied what used to be a skate trail which is now groomed for 1 1/2 classic ski tracks. Much of the fallen tree debris had been cleared. We were excited to hear the groomer on the other side of the river from us so we went to check that out and he was just starting to pack those trails as well. Campground loop looked to have immaculate grooming when you first enter the park on the right side although we skied the other end of the park. Thanks for getting right on it groomers!

Broke trail until we couldn't go any further due to downed trees. Snowshoe tracks and a snowmobile has driven down the ski only trails.

Park staff report: Trees down blocking trails. Lakeside trails still have bare ground. They cleared and rolled the skate ski loop today. Other loops will take additional time to clear.

There was no grooming and just a couple of inches of snow. There were 3 or 4 sections of bare ground under pines. I enjoyed skiing it but it's definitely marginal. I was the only set of ski tracks. A fair amount of hiking.
