The summer home road and campground loop are in great shape and the crew at Bearskin and Golden Eagle have been working around the clock to get new trails open after the heavy snow last week. Conditions for skiing are excellent. We've been particularly enjoying the lighted loop at Bearskin.

Summer home and campground trails are groomed for skating. Most parts of the trail were completely covered but I still used my rock skis. Trails were fast and firm. Great first ski of the season!
