Very good to excellent conditions. Beautiful day on tap, great to see the sunshine and slightly warmer temps. Today we will be hosting a high school Nordic ski race from 10am to 2pm. Trails used for the course will be Sukkerbusk, Twin Lakes and Sap Run. All other trails will be open.Late afternoon/early evening we will touch up a few trails and continue grooming into Friday morning to have best skiing possible for the weekend.

The local fox has been sighted by skiers which is neat to hear after seeing it on the trails cams the past month. It has been sighted near the end of Mother North Star trail. Also, be sure to look for porcupines off Mother North Star and Roy’s Run trails, about 1/3rd the way in on both trails. Lots of other tracks including deer, wolf, coyote, pine marten, fox, and beaver to name a few. Also look for the new and active eagle nest at the start of Island Lake trail. You can also see the nest at the top of “eagle view” at the top of the last downhill on Twin Lakes trail. Many birds also to keep an eye for including the swooping pileated woodpecker.

Another day of cooler temps but no stopping great skiing conditions! The wind has been light and in the woods really no windchill. Just Ski! Bullhead Bootleg extension groomed yesterday afternoon and groomed up very nice. North end still rough, best to take skis off and walk through on this adventure trail. Overall all the trails are in great shape and skiing about as good as it gets. Touch up grooming where needed on a few trails today. Reminder ski meet in the morning on the 28th. Although Roy’s Run and Island Lake haven’t been groomed since the weekend, the dusting of new snow on top is skiing very nice and a sensation of silky skiing.

The local fox has been sighted by skiers which is neat to hear after seeing it on the trails cams the past month. It has been sighted near the end of Mother North Star trail. Also, be sure to look for porcupines off Mother North Star and Roy’s Run trails, about 1/3rd the way in on both trails. Lots of other tracks including deer, wolf, coyote, pine marten, fox, and beaver to name a few. Also look for the new and active eagle nest at the start of Island Lake trail.

Great day of skiing on tap! Very good to excellent conditions. Wind chill advisory but temps are above 0 and we are having a hard time finding any wind in the woods. A few lingering snow flakes this morning. Yesterday afternoon we cut new tracks on Sap Run, Sukkerbusk and Twin Lakes. renovated the base, conditioning the new snow with the base snow and setting the track. Groomer’s choice for trails to ski today! Skate trails worked over yesterday as well and Skaters Waltz in fantastic condition along with Suicide Hill and Single green.

The local fox has been sighted by skiers which is neat to hear after seeing it on the trails cams the past month. It has been sighted near the end of Mother North Star trail. Also, be sure to look for porcupines off Mother North Star and Roy’s Run trails, about 1/3rd the way in on both trails.
