Fresh snow! Just under 7″ of snow the past 24 hours. Grooming today on most of the trail system. Great weekend of skiing on tap! Cold temps in the forecast but nothing colder than what we have seen already and the trails have been busy regardless of the weather. Bundle up, protect the extremities, ski shorter loops and be smart to enjoy the fabulous mid winter conditions! The trails are always open and we never close them because of cold weather. We feel there is no windchill when dressed properly, skiing in the woods protected from the wind.

What a picture perfect day for the DL Invite. Wow! Click here for photos. We groomed most of the classic trails upon conclusion of the race and are out this morning grooming, preparing the trails for the MLK weekend.

An inch or so of new snow the past 24 hours. The new snow a nice refresh. Cold weather in place as we dropped down to -17.5 early this morning. No wind and sunshine taking off the edge. Grooming on select classic trails this morning. Very good to excellent ski conditions. Classic skiing has been nice with the colder temps and firm and solid tracks and skating surprisingly fast thanks to a solid firm base. Bit slower today with the fresh snow. A few scattered rough and thin spots but overall the skiing is great!

A chilly but great weekend of skiing. Nice job to all the folks who hit the trails including the ski teams that were on the trails from 7am to 11pm! We had the coldest morning of the  season on Sunday morning at -24.5 but with no wind and sunshine following and temps near 0, a super day on the trails. Good to excellent ski conditions. Classic skiing has been nice with the colder temps and firm and solid tracks. A few scattered rough and thin spots but overall reports have been good. Thanks for those that have filed a report.
