City of Cohasset successfully groomed out truck ruts and set tracks. Nice skiff of snow coming down today. Trailhead warm and lights on at night.

Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Tracks set nicely and an inch or fluffy snow in skate lane made for fun skiing with kids both in and out of tracks on the two closest loops. But there were deep ruts near trailhead from a big truck driving in from parking lot 100 yards or so. I notified City staff.

Night
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Lovely night for a ski. Trails in good condition. One or two lights out and a few small low branches along the classic trail to look out for. Skate lane looked good. Some footprints on the skate lane on the south end. Overall very good.

Grooming

Trails were groomed and tracks were set this morning. There is so little snow that you may poke through to bare ground on the tracks, but all trails are ready!
