Conditions: Classic ski trails recently packed and in good condition.
Groomer packed and corduroy classic trails yesterday afternoon. Tracks not set yet due to lack of snow. Trails fast since overnight freeze. Few skiers out so very few tracks to follow. Most footprints filled in with new grooming. No bare spots but a few areas (in pines) showing through. Overall a good ski.

Grooming [

Conditions: Good, to fair, full coverage.
All of Lebanon Hills Regional Park was rolled and corduroyed today. No machine tracks could be set. Good coverage, but watch for trails wearing down especially in trailhead and other high use areas. The snow that fell last night wasn't the best for ski trails, it's a little slow in places, fast in others.

Conditions: Decent snow depth with ski trails packed and rolled.
Skied this afternoon from Visitor center South to marker 7 and back. Trails were almost completely snow covered except a couple of well worn spots in woods. Trails had been packed and rolled but not tracked but with many skiers out found plenty of tracks to ski in. Unfortunately encountered many walkers and snowshoes in ski trails. But still a good ski.

Conditions: Solid coverage, no tracks set.
The traiss aren't tracked and coverage is getting thin in several spots. Lots of walkers on the trails. Classic skied several trails; the advanced loop is the best.

Conditions: Solid coverage, no tracks set.
Classic skied the full outer loop. Hard packed rolled trail with no machine set tracks. Despite that it skied very nicely. Saw a few rocks but only hit one. B ski conditions. Lots of walkers on the trail. Some people skating as well.

Conditions: Fair to good. Snow is well rolled and packed on the trails - quite fast! - but not tracked. Shallow tracks could be followed in spots. Coverage is decent and thin spots and debris can be avoided for now. Walker/runner degradation not bad yet and neither are the oak leaves.
More snow will make for great skiing at Lebanon Hills.

Easy trails holding steady, good coverage on advanced loop. Some skier-made tracks. Well worth the drive!

Conditions: Fair. Rolled but not tracked. Very soft. Very little debris (oak leaves, etc).
Park was busy today but trails are holding up and are completely snow covered, for the most part. Trails are very soft but fortunately there have been few walkers so quite skiable with few holes or issues.
