Conditions: Excellent skating West and East.
Fresh snow and freshly groomed. Full coverage even through the soccer and baseball areas. I forgot what loose snow feels like. The downhills on the west side were rather narrow which made them a little tricky on first run.

Conditions: Poor to fair west side skating.
Mostly poor. The approach to the loop is awful and the loop itself is not that good. Very hard, dirty and thin. My skis caught debris several times. The big hill had the best conditions. The classical tracks are solidly iced, thin and dirty but I did see one determined skier on very short wax less skis moving along. For the obsessed skiers only.

Conditions: Fair. Skate lane ok, some dirt. Classic tracks minimal and very icy. Rock skis preferred.
I skated this afternoon. I totally avoided the loop around the ball fields and stuck to the lit trails. Conditions were fair, icy and some dirt scraped through the snow and debris scattered in parts. Overall very skiable. Classic tracks minimal in parts and has a lot more dirt in it than the skate lane.

Conditions: Good to very good on the west side trails. The trails were recently groomed. The new snow had bonded to the icy base. Mostly good on the east side trails. Fair to poor on the flats by the softball fields and hockey rink due to drifting and exposed ice from last week.
The west trails at Elver were good to very good as long as they were on the hills. The flats by the softball fields were icy, drifted bare or covered with drifted snow. Overall pretty good. The east trails were good too, except for the top of the sledding hill and next to the hockey rink, which had a section that was treacherous, solid ice. The snow was pretty slow with the cold temperature. The classic track was skied in. The skate deck was firm and flat on the west end trails.

Conditions: very good on northwest side. solid base with about 1" of groomed snow on top.
Skied this noon as northwest trail was being groomed. Very good, solid base with about 1" of groomed snow on top. Pleasantly surprised as to the condition as well as the level base. A few thin areas with twigs and ball diamond area icy. As for the southwest side, no go and ungroomed for some reason.

Conditions: Very good skating on the West.
My third time here since Thursday which was the best. A little worn yesterday but corduroy track set today loosened things up. The hills are pretty slick and fast. Classical trails are worn and icy with some litter. Getting thin in spots.
