Trail Detail
Notes
Trails are on the golf course. Some nice hills but most of the course is pretty exposed. There is one back leg that is quite shaded and seems to hold snow long after the rest of the course loses it. Rentals at the chalet.Trail Reports

Pretty well skated out, could use a fresh pass with the groomer, no edge at all in the center. I found passable, 6' wide unblemished areas by skating from one side to the other of the lane. Fast though!

An excellent groom today with firm skate deck. The classic is in awesome condition and a groom was not needed. Perfect conditions for today's race!

Another day of good conditions at Como. Classic tracks were fast but had some kick. They were washed out in a few places on the south end but still easily skiable. Skate deck looked fantastic and I wish I would've skated instead, corduroy on more than half still. Wind and cold was keeping people away. Get out there Como!

Excellent conditions at Como again today, at least for skate. My partner rated the classic tracks as merely good, since they hadn't been reset recently. With such a string of good skiing days here in the metro area we don't need to go north! Thanks to mother nature and thanks to the groomers.

Another fantastic grooming by the St Paul Parks Crew! Skate deck obviously had loads of use, but showed no signs of rutting or anything. The only concerns were a few spots that got icy in the warm weather: under the trees on the hill coming off the back (groomers covered it in snow and groomed it, better but be careful there's a ski around), and the low spot in between fairways on the north east. No issues, I skied my good skis and wasn't concerned. The conditions were so good that I stayed out for an extra hour just to enjoy the trails more. You couldn't ask for better conditions at a park. I don't know if the new St Paul/Ramsey County Park passes are making a difference in grooming but mine's worth every penny (and more) with the excellent work the crew has done this year. Get out there and enjoy the trails, you won't be disappointed.

Excellent conditions at Como today. Hats off to the groomers, the course is excellent. No bare spots the classic tracks looked clean. A groomer was working at the top near the rope row to insure coverage under some trees -- that's some dedication. Best conditions this year.

Skied Como golf course around noon. Classic groomed trails were in excellent condition. There was a sheet of ice right before going down the big hill, but could be easily avoided. Overall, very fun.
