Wonderful morning to see the sunrise! Skied in the classic tracks on Skyline and Bridge trails. Some wet spots but very few bare spots, for sure need rock skis. Classic is pretty nice, but slow. Enjoy, should be good for a few days.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Good skis ]
The Loppet trails crew has made enough snow for a 300 meter out and back in the Lower Stadium area by the Trailhead building. We will be grooming nightly, as conditions allow. Lights will be on 6am - 10pm. Buy your ski pass online and pickup at the ticket window at the Trailhead. Plan to mask up if you can’t maintain 6 feet of distance with other skiers.

Super fun to get out on a real groomed trail for the first ski of the season before Halloween! Nice flat, easy loop to get your ski legs and balance dialed in, right next to the Trailhead for easy access. Real nice base and clean snow for October 28! Double classic tracks and nice skate deck. Yellow storage wax and rock skis were plenty fast for me, but no real damage possible with better skis. Thanks Loppet Trails team!

Several people out blazing tracks on south golf course and JD rivers. Plenty deep but very sticky. Nothing set besides tracks from other skiers but full coverage or normal trail and a lot of random lines to pursue as well. Didn’t venture further north or to bog.
