Ski Trail Report

Trails are open! A crisp and cool morning with early morning low checking in at 2 degrees! Sunshine and light wind. A great day to ski! Looks to warm up to the mid 30’s today. Should be nice skiing most of the day, especially with cloud cover. Cold temperatures yesterday allowed grooming in the morning and afternoon/evening. Tracks renovated and reset on Sap Run and Sukkerbusk. Also fresh track set on Twin Lakes and JibFly. A 3km loop is groomed for skating starting out of the soccer field and using much of Skaters Waltz. No tracks set on this loop but open for no track classic skiing.

Great seeing everyone out to enjoy the special bonus late season skiing in April! We will have the trails open until at least Wednesday noon. Depending on the weather will determine if we can be open Thursday and beyond. We will classic groom probably one more time but try to have the skate loop groomed into later week.
