I found several classical tracks. Snow was icy but no rocks, so low grip. There were occasional patches of grass/dirt but they were easy to avoid. Saw five skiers during the hour I was there.

The skate deck is thin and icy so I opted to bring out the fishscales for today's ski and generally used skied-in tracks just to the side. There is still good snowcover in the park. Kudos for the city for grooming and the Highland Park nordic ski team for shoveling, making the most of limited snow.

We were able to comb the trails over the weekend and they're available for use. With the quick thaw on Monday trails could get icy and there may be more bare spots until we get fresh snow. Please be careful and have fun.

Highland Golf Course has been groomed for skating, and it's pretty good! Some grass sticking through here and there, and some leaves and sticks that you can avoid, but nothing to damage your skis. Overall, quite nice. Thanks to the groomers!

Grass is poking through in some places, and there is a fair amount of leaf coverage in others, but considering the lack of snow, the usual loop is surprisingly skiable.

While this snow is a welcome sight, there's not enough to groom a trail. Please also note that there is still thawed ground underneath this snow. Please respect that these trails are closed so we can avoid damage to the golf course turf. We will get the trails open for you as soon as we can.
