Morning
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Good skis ]
Conditions: very good to excellent.
Took a short morning loop. 36 Degrees and nigh humidity. Skate track was freshly groomed this morning--very firm and fast
classic tracks very good to very good but difficult to get a good grip with cake wax--probably should have gone to klister.

Morning
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Good skis ]
Fox Hill is in phenomenal shape for skating. All trails have been groomed for skating and the classic track was left as is. Several striders were out and the classic track looked to be improving as the day went on. Minimal leaf/debris litter on the trails. I brought my B-skis expecting fair conditions but would rate them as very good overall and wouldn't hesitate to use good skis on all the trails. Thanks to groomer Jerry!

Evening
Firsthand: Freestyle Secondhand 
[ Good skis ]
The skate deck was firm and fast but not icy on Monday around sunset. There is some trail litter in the wooded areas but I don't think it merits needing B-skis. Some striders reported icy patches in some portions of the track.

Grooming 
[ Good skis ]
Conditions at Fox Hill continue to be good. Skate deck has firmed up very well over the past several days and coverage is excellent throughout. The classic tracks appeared in good condition as well. About a dozen cars in the new parking lot, the word is out on Fox Hill. Enjoy!
