Skied Ferndell and Turtleville. Skate deck was softer than I expected after the cold night, but quite good. Mostly very good snow coverage. Classic tracks looked mostly good, but there were some spots where the ground was showing through. Get out and enjoy the end of winter while you can!

Super cold on Monday morning. Skied the FernDell 3 mile loop 3 times. Tracks were fresh and got faster as I went around each loop. Pretty amazing conditions. Some bare areas, but few and far between. I avoided any of the bare spots. Overall, excellent skiing.

Stopped in at park this morning looking for lost glasses. Fresh grooming was done sometime after I skied Sunday afternoon. Saw beautiful cord and tracks set on Fern Dell and Turtleville. Also fresh cord on Hastings, Pioneer and Ishnalla but could not tell if they had been tracked. Still no grooming on beach, campground or northwest loops. Park headquarters office was closed. It was cold! Hopefully I can hit it tomorrow.

Trails were groomed on Saturday then got additional 2" of snow on top of grooming. Tracks had been set on Fern Dell but no where else. No grooming on beach (Newport), campground (Kilbourn) and Northwest loops. Over 6" snow on ground now, good skiing but you will be working for it.

Fern Dell, Turtleville and Hastings were groomed for skate. Hope they do the other side for tomorrow. Sure could use more snow.

From the parking lot, lots of snow up here. Trails appear to have great snow cover, and haven't been groomed after the couple inches of snow on Monday.

Just a winter wonderland ski today. We classic skied. Great coverage. No track set but very skiable!

Winter wonderland in Baraboo! Another 1-2 inches of fluffy stuff on top of the couple that the park got yesterday. The trail system hasn't been re-groomed in a few days, but given how light the snow is on top, paired with a solid base it was faster than expected. Wide lane for skate (no classic tracks set), and very quiet on the trails, with snow covering the trees in all directions. I say B skis, but you could use good skis and easily avoid the very few branch pieces or pine cones.

Lots of snow up in the Dells. Mirror Lake received another 1 or 2" today while Madison got sleet. Skied in a beautiful snow storm around noon. Hastings and Ferndale are great. Haven't been groomed for a couple of days but, plenty of coverage. No tracks. Turtleville is pretty beat up from walkers and thick snow. Only 3 trails groomed: Hastings, Ferndale and Turtleville. B or good skis. It may not last too long so Get after it!

Absolutely excellent skiing given the amount of snow so far. They've gotten probably 6-7" and have done a great job of grooming. A bit soft on the edges, no tracks set, with the skied in portions largely clean and leaf/stick free. The base overall is pretty firm. Very surprisingly not many people here!
