Trails are open A great day of skiing on tap! Forest is flocked in white with a touch of rime frost. Slightly warmer today which has softened up the harder elements of the trail. Grooming this morning on classic trails Wavy Gravy, Roy’s Run, Rootin Tootin, Sap Run, Sukkerbusk and Mother Hen. Touch up Skaters Waltz to end the grooming session.

Friday grooming on Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, JibFly, Mother North Star and Twin Lakes. Also renovated and combed the skater trails of Skaters Waltz and North Loup. Reports from skiers were good after grooming. A little bit of organic forest matter falling to the deck after windy conditions Thursday morning otherwise the snow and base is holding out well considering the current snow drought and roller coaster weather last week. Grooming cleaning the tracks where forest material.

Use extra caution walking in the parking lots and start area which is icy.    

Skating on Skaters Waltz, the extension loops, North Loup, Single Green, Kristin’s Kutoff and Eira Bikwadinaa Hill. All other trails are tracked for classic skiing. (Please no skating on classic trails) Sukkerbusk is a great starter trail for classic which feeds the outer trails and crosses most of the inner trails providing a good “lay of the land”.  

17″ of snow so far this season. We have been grooming daily on the entire trail system the past two weeks.

Compacted base on trail 2-5″. Total snowfall in December: 12″. Snowfall in November: 7″. Snowfall YTD at 19″. October precipitation (rain) at 2.7″ 

Trails are open Light glaze on the deck this morning after misty conditions last night. Conditions will be a bit icy/faster but we have been grooming today and reports have been good from folks skiing the fresh groomed. We renovated and reset track on Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, JibFly, Mother North Star and Twin Lakes. We also renovated and combed the skater trails of Skaters Waltz and North Loup. A little bit of organic forest matter falling to the deck after windy conditions Thursday morning otherwise the snow and base is holding out well considering the current snow drought and roller coaster weather last week. Saturday will be back out grooming more classic trails. We are only resetting one track, saving the other side for future grooming and this allows us to keep snow longevity. If the track you are skiing in seems icy, try the other side!

Trails are open today on Christmas. Should be another nice day of skiing! The little bit of new snow Tuesday helping taking off the hardness and freshening up the deck nicely as well. It has been quite a week or so of roller coaster weather but the trails are holding out good with a great base. The start areas are icy but once in the woods down the trail a ways, skiing improves. Yesterday we groomed on skate trails North Loup and Skaters Waltz. Tuesday we groomed on Sukkerbusk and JibFly resetting one track on the double track and the skate trails of Skaters Waltz and North Loup also renovated and combed. 

We will continue touching up the trails as needed and possible. Monday grooming on Sap Run, Poki Loki with new tracks set and renovating/ combing on Skaters Waltz. Sunday grooming on Twin Lakes, Island Lake, Loon Return and Rootin Tootin. Along with JibFly, these are recommended trails. Good reports from Roy’s Run and Sukkerbusk is skiing well. A little bit of organic forest matter falling to the deck from the recent wind but today’s snow a nice refresh. Just Ski.

We had a great Autumn of Fall grooming clearing leaves and debris off the trails and the new snow is packing in well with the clean deck before the snow. 

We cleared over 600 trees since the Solstice 2025 storm. Big thanks to everyone that has helped!
