Trail Report

Not quite as warm today as Sunday and Monday. Froze down again this last night, making for crusty conditions early then getting soft in the afternoon. Once again, skiing was very nice this morning during the transition period before the snow got soft and slow. The coverage today didn’t look much different than the photos below. Most noticeable were the tree wells a bit bigger. The trails will be closed until Thursday afternoon. Even though we plan on skiing in the mornings, we can not provide any emergency service if so required so for safety, we will have the trails closed. It looks to be a bit cooler tonight and tomorrow so we might try grooming a bit tomorrow morning. Grooming most likely to occur on Skaters Waltz and North Loup with no classic tracks to be set.

Trail Report

A beautiful day on the trails. Skiing was fantastic mid-winterlike in the morning up until 11am with dry, fast snow then conditions turned slower with warm temps and softening. Slowly starting to glaze over late afternoon.  Moosejaw folks skiing all day, enjoying the mild temps and beautiful sunshine. Fresh grooming last night on Sukkerbusk, Rootin Tootin and Wavy Gravy. Classic skiing early on these trails was as good as it gets. Grooming tonight planned for Sukkerbusk, Twin Lakes, Skaters Waltz and possibly one other double track classic trail. Skiing will be fast early then will soften again with warmer temps late morning….spring skiing conditions!!
