Fantastic skiing. About as good as it gets.  Nice day for the Exploratory students on the trails today. Entire trail system groomed earlier this week. Touch up grooming planned for Friday night and on through the weekend.  Great time of the year to be in the woods with days getting longer and mild temps. A few areas of organic matter but otherwise trails are in great shape. The streets in town might be slushy but the snow is dry and powdery at Maplelag. We did not receive any freezing rain Friday morning.
