At my 10:40 am start, it was 30 degrees and sunny with a light crowd. Star was in very good condition. Just a little dirt on the inside of the curve as you turn into the straight away starting at the back of the trailhead bldg. Moderate sugar on the NE and NW climbs. Snow had corned and slowed me as I reached the top of the longer west to east climb. Still covered 5 laps doing the west to east climb twice at my third fastest pace for the season.

Another fast day at Hyland. Groomed but short. Quite a few skiers with AirPods. One way to beat the boredom.

At 10:20 am start, it was around 30 degrees with a surprisingly cold north wind as you rounded the corner to the shack, sunny, a fair crowd and Star's trail conditions were very good. Some dirty snow on the portion next to the trailhead parking lot easy to ski around and some sugar build-up on the NW climb. At least when I was there the climb on the longer west east trail that I only did twice in the course of my 6 laps was fast. It was my fastest pace of the year. Thanks Three Rivers and groomers.

I got out to Hyland at 10:00 am, and the classic tracks were already a little slushy. I had a decent glide, and a good kick with my no wax skis. The Star Loop is still holding up well. It sounds like Hyland will groom through the weekend. I saw only three classic skiers and no skaters this morning.

At my 9:30 am start, it was partly sunny, 51 degrees according to the trailhead thermometer - I think it was actually high 40's - and the Star loop was in fair to good condition. It was primarily soft, wet corn and getting ruttted in spots. However, due to the soft snow the ruts weren't really an issue. But the climbs were definitely more work I only did the longer west-east hill once over the course of 5 laps.

Star Loop was in excellent condition this morning at 8:45. It was my fastest skate of the year but obviously without the Scenic or Boulder climbs. Thanks Three Rivers and groomers for keeping Hyland open for us diehards.
