Ski Trail Report

Trails are open. Excellent conditions, glide is a bit slower after a light dusting on Thursday morning and cooler temps. Today we will complete grooming of the entire trail system the past few days, setting new track on the western trails. Thursday we reset track on Rootin Tootin, Roy’s Run and a few other segments on the inner trails. Wednesday all the skate trails were renovated and combed and select classic trails were reset. Should be a great weekend of skiing! 

A great day for the North Star Conference ski meet  on Tuesday. Crisp conditions but sun was shining. light winds and great snow. Congrats to all the skiers on job well done. 

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!
