Skate ski lesson!

After a crisp and cool week, temps warming a bit in to the weekend. The tracks and trail have been holding out great. A few areas of drifting in the open and off the ponds, sloughs and fields. Also a bit of organic matter from woodpeckers and woods life. We will be grooming most of the trail system on Friday morning for the weekend and touch up grooming as needed through the weekend.

Compacted base 8-16″. Snow depth in woods 2-3 feet. 100% open on 64km. 57 km tracked for classic, 13km groomed for skating.   Skaters Waltz/ extension, Suicide Hill and North Loup groomed for skating.  There is also a track set on North Loup for classic.

Total snowfall  this season has been 69″.  The trails are open for day skiing and the current fee is $15 to use the trails for the day.

Trail Report

Crisp and cool on Tuesday. Wind from the west making it feel even cooler but folks still getting out on the trails enjoying the beautiful conditions. The tracks are solid and firm and holding up great from the weekend grooming. Few areas of drifting in the open. Great time of the year to be in the woods with days getting longer and intense sunny days like today.  Grooming planned for Thursday evening.
