Kettle and Knob were much better than the last time I skied Murphy. Appreciated the efforts the groomer made to level and widen the skate deck on those trails. Seems like it still needs more snow for them to get it fully leveled. Plenty of trail debris from the oaks and a few rocks still lurking just beneath the surface. Skate deck was a mix of firm and soft. Razorback was surprisingly open, but it was not for the faint of heart. Will need some fresh snow and more leveling efforts from the groomers before I'm ready to give it another shot.

Tracks in decent condition but quite a bit of leaves in sticks on the trails, with a few dog walkers using the trail. Tracks on about 90% of the Knob Trail.

Nice corduroy base. Only partially tracked for classic. Leaves on the trail but largely fully snow covered. Great time.
