God bless the snow! Skied on Saturday and about cried. Today? Very good. Soft still but the new snow rejuvenated the skate deck. Tracks looked spotty in some areas. Very few icy and less grassy areas. Thanks to the groomers...you guys are our rock stars. With a little more snow tonight, a bit more grooming and setup, the trails should be excellent. Quite a few people out tonight so that was great to see. Did some night skiing with a headlamp and it was great. If you haven't night skied there, put it on your to-do list.

The skate track was pleasantly fast with the freshly groomed new layer of snow. I saw a handful of classic skiers who seemed to be having a good time. Ice showed through on some areas, but overall it was in pretty good shape!

First time to this course. Better then expected based on yesterday's reports. Trails are groomed and can hold an edge for most of the course. Watch the tight turns and go wide for the better snow. Still icy out there but it's skiing. Definitely rock ski conditions. Washed out track but saw many classic skiers. Fair to poor condition throughout the course at 11 AM.

Had a fun ski at Highland! There were some icy patches on the skate deck, but nothing too terrible considering the thaw we just had. Given the ice and couple spots with grass poking through I'd still recommend rock skis, but it's still fun to get out there. I didn't classic ski, but it looked like the tracks were decent with the exception of a few dozen feet in the West side where the tracks ran through an area that has no snow coverage.

Trail conditions today between 3-4 pm were what I expected: icy in places but pleasantly ski-able. Great afternoon to be out!

Seems like the warm weather has taken its toll... Classic tracks were shallow but skiable in most places with some very icy spots and some bare ground to avoid. Despite the conditions, plenty of people out enjoying the weather.

Advanced beginner speaking: I thought the trails were great, both for skating and classic (nice deep groom, except on turns). Didn't see any bare spots, although I only made it part of the way around before having to leave. Didn't see any bare spots on the trails. Some of the surrounding hilltops had grass peaking through due to blowing. Get out there and ski! Not sure on the B skis vs Good skis. I think either would be fine.

Cruised along on the skate deck - nice fast conditions and got a great edge bite. Classic tracks looked beautiful, too. Some of the best conditions of the year and everyone is smiling out there!

Great conditions, nice soft snow with deep tracks this morning. I classiced and only found one place where the coverage was thin. Skate deck looked great!

Highland Nine-Hole was in great shape this morning. Rolled and a classic track set for the entire typical course. Two or three thin spots under trees in the classic track but easily avoided and otherwise very good condition. A little sun and it would have been a perfect morning.
