Green, Orange, Yellow are freshly rolled and packed today and first Blue loop around the return loop. Red not packed. No track set but good skiing. Thanks to groomers once again. Even ice and grass in swamps covered, though thinner. We got 6-7" yesterday, so along with 6" last week it looks like middle of winter in most places.

Many thanks to the groomers for the good job rolling and packing! We received 6-7" of new snow during the day Monday. Green, orange, yellow, blue are rolled, red is not. While a classic track is not set, I was able to ski well with the fresh snow and corduroy, blue kick wax, 26°. Good skis because of fresh snow cover. A few skaters were out yesterday.

We got about 1-2" of non-sticky snow yesterday. It was a a good glide on top of hard icy base. I did Blue to Oberholtzer Trail in Voyaguer's Park and back to Orange Loop. Much of it was descent skiing. There are areas in swamps that had melted into large puddles and refroze. Small rocks are poking through and some bare spots. So, definitely Spring skiing conditions but still fun and mostly snow covered but not with good skis.

Skating was fun with just enough new snow to get a good edge on top of the ice. There are sticky spots but very few exposed rocks on the Green and Orange trails. Northwest wind kept it cold even in the bright sun.

I started at 7:30 a. m. before it warmed up, about 22°. I did the Red Loop which is snow covered but has many needles/twigs and debris in pine areas (picture). On two bare hills you have to take skis off and walk down. Green and Orange have pretty good snow though hard, icy. Most bare spots are small that you can step around.

I skied in 1" fresh snow in track on green, orange and 1.5" on blue shack loop! Still good cover, though quite slow. Isolated rock and small bare spots.

Fishscales worked well on the light dusting of snow from last night. Green, Orange and yellow have good snow base, but is quite icy under fluff.

-4° but sunny and no wind. With face mask I was nice and warm. Wonderful morning for a ski. The track is in great shape on Blue and Red Loop, pretty fast glide.

4" of snow on Wednesday, rollers yesterday, Ginzu groomers today in a pleasant 15 degrees. We tracked and groomed all the Tilson trails. Please let the skate lane set up, and it should be perfect!
