Trail Detail
Notes
Within the West Bend city limits sits a 148-acre natural area connected another 35 acres of neighborhood park. It offers a beautiful setting in the hilly Kettle Moraine. The groomed trails traverse a prairie and take you through a deciduous woodland and a red pine plantation. Other ungroomed trails are open for both skiers and snow-shoers.Trail Reports

I groomed the 2" of fresh snow this morning. Classic track was set on most trails, Royal Oaks loop the exception. The track through the pines is a little thin.

I rolled the trails this morning. Approximately 4" of snow compressed to about 2.5"; not deep enough to set a track. I picked up lots of tree debris from Royal Oaks loop.

The trails were groomed this morning after last night's 4" snowfall. Track was set for the first time this season. The base is fairly firm but may get better after the next cold snap coming tomorrow. Excellent conditions as long as the hikers and deer stay off tracks.

I rolled the trails Monday morning. Too little snow to set a track. The 5" powdery snow compacted to only about 2-3." However, no bare ground and the base may firm up with the cold the cold overnight temps.
