Trails are open. Reports from skiers on Saturday were good. Classic skiing should be better today after the skiers yesterday “polished” the tracks yesterday. Cold temps but light wind and sunshine taking off the edge.
2″ of snow Thursday evening. Grooming Friday on all the inner trails and a new track set on Twin Lakes to the west and North Loup to the north. Tracksetting occurred in the afternoon once the wind settled down but might be a few small areas where drifted.
Lot of animals on the move and tons of tracks everywhere, especially on the inner trails. Eagles, grouse, porcupines, fox and pileated woodpeckers some of the wildlife sighted….keep your eyes open!
