Skate deck was in decent condition today. There is some leaf debris and small twigs in green meadow. I did fall once after catching an unlucky rut, but I can't complain. The uphills in green meadow were pretty well churned up, so expect a good workout. Snow guns were blasting the entire time, hopefully they will be able to reopen the rest of the trails soon. All in all it was nice to be out skiing in below freezing temps again!

Awesome conditions at Wirth this morning, the skate deck was hard and fast at 7am. Some snow cone was forming on the hill when I left at 9. Tracks looked ok. About 1.5k is open. Snow guns were blowing on Jim's hill up to coach's corner.

Grooming [ Trails Open: Partial, ]
|
Lower Stadium and Green Meadow trails are back open. Jim's Hill, Coach's Corner and beyond remain closed due to extensive effects from the rain and warm temps. We likely will revisit that section with snowmaking once we get back into snowmaking temps.

Grooming Scheduling [ Trails: Closed, ]
|
All trails are currently closed. The rain and warm temps did a fair amount of damage to the trail. We think most spots will be repairable, but we will need more consistent below freezing temps to be able to do the work.

Grooming Scheduling [ Trails Open: Partial, ]

Weather update: due to forecasted rain the 24th-26th, we are not planning on grooming Sunday and Monday nights so we can minimize damage to the snow. The trail will remain open to skiers. Be aware of variable conditions if you do come ski. We look forward to being back at it as soon as possible!

Skated Wirth from 6-8 am today. It was quite early but by 8:00 it was getting crowded with the arrival of a few teams. Skiing was good, but there is enough dirty snow, especially on the new extensions, that I won't use my best skis there again. The extension past Coaches Corner wasn't lit today; that made for a tough U-turn in the foggy darkness at the bottom of the hill.

Took my first ski of the season at sundown today. Given today's weather, much less this week's...and the time of day it beat my expectations. The hill is some extra workout in that sugar but I left smiling.

Got out on the trail just before 8:00am with one of the last open parking spots. Thank you to the Loppet for continuing to make it work, and extend the course. The new World Cup 180° turn is a nice addition, looking forward to faster conditions! Snow was otherwise okay, but sugar was getting pretty deep on the up-hills. Good for training those legs though.
