Not good conditions: The trails quickly went from ice to slush as the sun came out. I was hoping they would have rolled the trails last night or one last go this morning.

Deteriorating conditions and melting quickly. The trails were rolled and there are some manemade classic tracks. Pretty slow and pressing down on remaining snow. There are some bare areas that you can negotiate without taking off the skis. Amazing how 10 inches of snow can disappear this quickly. Like in golf, my worst day of skiing is still better than my best day at work.

Conditions are fair to poor. Trails have been groomed but no tracks have been laid down. There was not enough snowfall to lay any tracks so skate skiing is preferable. There are bare spots with debris sticking out. Puddles of water are in low spots. Do not use your best equipment/skis.

It is absolutely gorgeous at Lake Elmo today. Snow covered trees, lots of animal tracks etc. That said, it has not been groomed at all and the snow is wet and heavy, with water in the tracks in some places. I followed in the classic tracks of another skier. It was slow, and hard work to move, but well worth the trip.

I really enjoyed putting on my rock skis to ski the majority of the trail system this afternoon. There was a variety of snow conditions, a lot of stabilizing muscles used (maybe that's just lack of skill), but skiable snow coverage throughout. A big thanks to the groomers!

Regrouped, as in rolled. Good for freestyle/skate skiing but the relatively decent classic skier made tracks were all but obliterated. Very disappointing and made for a much more difficult classic ski. Good cover in most areas and snow is good. There are more areas of leaves and exposed dirt and rocks, but all easily avoidable.

The trails haven't been maintained since usage on Saturday and Sunday. With the cold, they were rock hard (as expected). Downhills were icy fast and hard. Green grip wax worked well. As expected, there were very few people.

Not enough snow to set tracks. The user made tracks are often down to the ground. I can see new scratches and gouges on the bottom of the skis. The trails had not been re-groomed after Saturday's usage.

They did not roll the trails today, but if you can brave the cold, the trails are good! Thankful for the extra snow! Skied the north side this time.

Good conditions! Rolled but not tracked two photos of the worst (and still good) on the red, green and yellow loops and the best. Essentially no bad spots. Good snow cover, soft, and fairly fast.
