All ski, snowshoe and fat bike trails were groomed today. Picked up about 3-4" over the last couple days and the new snow on top of the firm base made for excellent conditions.

Afternoon
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Picked up about an inch of snow overnight and groomed all bike, snowshoe and ski trails today. The inch made a big difference in smoothing out the ski trail and setting a nice deep track - ski trails are back to great shape. Talked to a couple of fat bikers after grooming and the report is the bike trail is also in great shape with just a couple soft spots but otherwise a firm base and great traction.

Afternoon
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Groomed all the ski trails today - the skate lane came out great and skied really well for tonight's Pick Your Passion event, the track came out so-so and not sure I made it better or worse.

Morning
Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Some rutting from previous skiers, but a good base for skating. Used tracks on downhills because it was less work than skating. Definitely worth it.

Morning
Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Skated the 10k loop this morning (in the rain) and conditions are still quite good. Base is still firm with just the top inch or so softening. Pole plants were mostly solid with just a few times were I punched through. Ran into some classic skiers that were happy with the track. Bad news is that with continuing rain today and warm days and nights, conditions will continue to deteriorate. Watch out for slick conditions in the parking lot.

Morning
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Scratched up all the skate lanes this morning grinding up the overnight glaze. According to the lone skier I saw today, skate conditions were excellent after grooming. Will check the trails in the morning and if they're glazed, we'll scratch them up again. Track looked icy in spots but let it be. According to the lone fat biker I saw today, bike trail was getting pretty soft.

Evening
Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Picked the fat bike groomer up from the shop this afternoon and groomed all the bike trails except Red Trail and High Five (that's 8.9 miles of fast, flowy, purpose-built single-track open for fat biking). The grooming came out good and should set up well overnight - unfortunately there is rain and winter mix forecast for the next couple days.
