[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Beautiful. Excellent track. Light snow falling added some powder to an already good base. I skied Hartley yesterday and was nervous on the icy downhill runs; this trail has equally steep/long hills and with the softer snow, they were super fun. One of my favorite trails--I heartily thank those who maintain it!

Firsthand: Classic Observation 
[ Rock skis ]
Good coverage in the open, but thin in spots under the conifers. Trails had been cleared, packed and tracked (thanks folks!). Great spot to ski and be sheltered from today's gale-force winds. This is a great, intimate trail through the woods, and forms part of the Northwoods-Tettagouche route thru the Palisade Valley, one of the premier day tours on the North Shore. You may want to ski it soon as there was flagging and signs indicating portions of the area are part of a state timber auction - understandable as the balsams are really thick.
