Grooming [ Trails Open: All, ]
|
I made one pass on the skate deck Saturday night on most trails except Red Pine and Nebagamon. I was able to groom out the old ruts but some sections may be a bit crunchy until it softens a bit. Morning will be the best conditions before the temperature rises. The fat bike trail is groomed too and riding well.

Firsthand: Classic [ Trails Open: All, ]

Wonderful wonderful. Classic was the way to go. Skate deck looked very soft but classic had a slight glaze on the tracks that made for a fun ski. It had been freshly groomed just before I arrived. School kids were doing their version of the Birkie that morning, great to see so many enthusiastic young skiers out on the trail!

Trails freshly groomed post storm, so it was a bit soft but skiable. Didn't see much debris. Skied maple to oak and back.

Firsthand: Classic [ Trails Open: Most, ]
|
We skied After Hours this afternoon. Most of the trail had just been groomed to perfection. The skate deck was slightly soft, wide and even. The classic tracks were soft, but deep and straight. Someone had skied out a few of the corners before we got there. There is debris in quite a bit of the tracks after a certain point and some on the skate deck, but it wasn't horrible. The classic only trails had not been groomed but the snowshoe trails had been.

Trails were in good condition where grooming had taken place on Thursday and Friday, which was most trails, but not all. Red Pine and Nebagamon Creek were not groomed and White Pine and other areas had only 1/2 skating lane groomed but it still made for pretty good skiing. Brule received at least 3 inches of snow on Wednesday morning once the rain turned to snow, so it is not icy at all. It also allowed for setting good tracks for classic.

Secondhand [ Trails Open: All ]

Some trails have been groomed and tracked, The fat bike trail has been groomed and is riding decent too. Here is what the DNR posted: We have begun to groom the trails for the upcoming weekend. Entry trails including maple, oak, spruce, and river have been groomed and tracked. Sally's classic and the remainder of the system will be groomed on Friday. Conditions are good for skating, but inconsistent for classic. Hard frozen or soft slush in all areas made setting full depth track difficult. Tracks range from good to poor. More passes will help to recondition the snow/ice, but new snow would be best, possibly early next week.
