All trails were groomed tonight for skate and all trails except silver and red were tracked. Expect classic tracks to be variable ranging from excellent to shallow with leaves and bare spots. Skate lane has better coverage but ranges from thin and bumpy to very good on the smoother trails of green and purple. I would use rock skis for classic and rock or B skis for skate.

Trails were rolled Saturday afternoon with grooming. Trails are thin and you may encounter gravel and sticks. Good to see snow at last. Grooming plans: We plan to track overnight

We rolled all trails yesterday and it is packed but very thin. We had only 3" of snow yesterday but this morning it was fairly firm allowing for some skating on rock skis. Tried to groom tracks--no way, not enough base. At least we have a packed base ready for the next snowfall.

All the trails were rolled today but coverage is very thin. We had maybe 3" of new snow. Due to the low level of snow trails are still open to hikers. Campground loop might be an option if you're desperate to try some skiing.
