Great conditions this morning with a well set and solid classic track. However, new snow had already blown into the tracks near the visitors center and in a few other spots. Deer post holing was also apparent in a few locations. The skate deck was in nice shape as well.

The trails were in excellent condition today, classic track firm but not icy - also tried out the skate deck and it was in great shape.

Fantastic conditions this morning after a couple days of relatively warm weather. The guns continue to blaze beyond Frog Town. Thank you, groomers and park staff!

Felt like the Zamboni must have recently gone by. Trails through Frog Town are open and glazed over so bring your favorite pair of ice skates or classic skis. Hard and frozen. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Man-made trail only, great conditions this morning at 6AM. I skate skied only, found the skate deck very firm but not icy. Classic tracks looked great per usual. 1.7M loop open. Kudos to the groomers.

Started ski with temp above freezing. When winds whipped up and temp dropped below zero, skate deck got icy. Some scattered leaves and tree debris from wind. Frogtown trail section now open. My GPS watch measured 2.8KM on outermost loop.

Fully expected to have the same loop as yesterday but a pleasant surprise to find it was groomed all the way through Frog Pond. A nice 2.25k loop. Plenty of 5am people out this morning before the wind.
