I groomed all of the skate lanes and set tracks on Skidder, Jammer, and Forest Lake trails. Tracks set on Sunday on all the other trails were firm and very good. Today's tracks are not so good; shallow and wavy. Then I classic skied all loops; very good blue klister skiing again. Snow depth on 90% of trails is just fine and should hold up well through the weekend.

I classic-skied all 18 km this morning and had a blast! The hard-packed trails and solid tracks (groomed on Thursday) were perfect for blue klister skiing. Fast but not out of control, and grip was great. Not sure how long this will hold up with several very warm days coming up.

I classic skied the 18km early afternoon today. Classic spring skiing conditions; fast (icy) on north or east-facing downhills and great conditions on south-facing sloping and flat areas. I plan to groom trails again on Wednesday morning.

Excellent conditions, skate and classic. I groomed skate lanes and some of the classic tracks (where the Rib Lake 8th graders skied Wednesday). I'll be away for a couple of days (at the Birkie) and it looks the warm temps will make things impossible to groom again at least until Sunday.

We got another 2" snowfall overnight so I groomed again this morning; 14 of 18km are done and in excellent condition. Pretty soft but it should be really good tomorrow!

Conditions: Top notch as always, as good as it gets.
This has become one of my favorite places to ski. I haven't ever been there when it wasn't either good or excellent, even when other places were unskiable. It lived up to its reputation for our visit this time. Although it is run for church camps and retreats, they and very welcoming and friendly towards the general public. Donations are appreciated.

Excellent conditions. I groomed skate lanes today; they were pretty hard-packed after yesterday's race but now they are excellent again. Tracks are firm and fast.

Excellent conditions. Just groomed this morning and it turned out great. Should be excellent for the Rib Lake Hinderbinder on Saturday.

I groomed trails last night, then skied some today. It was great last night but the wind blew snow into the tracks (and skate lanes) this morning and made for a very slow ski. I will try grooming again early Wednesday morning.

I groomed and skied Saturday; best conditions yet this season! Then groomed again this morning, since we got a little snow overnight. It looks beautiful out there but the snow is really soft.
