Trail Detail
Notes
Trails range from easy, such as the Purple Trail running along the Willow River, to the challenging Brown and Silver trails. Trails are groomed for both classical and skate skiing. All grooming is done by volunteer groomers who pride themselves in providing the best possible conditions.Trail Reports

Skied most of the park. Good to excellent conditions. Really appreciate the work of the groomers...nicely done! The pink trail is not groomed (multi purpose) but still surprisingly skied well -- 2 inches of powder over a hard trail. The Yellow trail was a bit soft due to lower traffic. Such a beautiful day and great track.

2” of new snow. Everything is now freshly groomed and new tracks are set on all trails. Conditions are very good. There are still a very few bare spots. Since the system has just been groomed, it is a little in the soft side.

A nice ski, did the skiing from the group camping lot to the beach Peking area by the river. Open areas were wind blown sometimes with snow packed in, other times icy. In the woods it was more consistent. Debris down in the woods, and some thin spots.

An inch of snow overnight made the trails somewhat soft and slow but great to get an edge. Grooming on silver, brown, green with little debris and a nice ski. No grooming yet on yellow, red and parts of purple. Brown trail rollercoaster was not groomed yet but skied in, fast and fun. Areas under the pines on yellow and up on the "prairie" trails had some bare spots, better to avoid yellow until we get some more snow.

We received 2+ inches of dense snow and it groomed out very well. We are in the process of re-tracking everything and re-finishing the skate deck. We should have all trails completed by 11:00 am this morning. The new snow filled in most of the isolated bare spots but there are still a few, so keep an eye out. The skate deck is corduroy side-to-side and the tracks are well-defined.

Trails have been newly groomed and tracked since snow earlier this week, very firm and smooth now with just a bit of leaf litter here and there. Classic tracks were excellent and skate deck looked good too. Skied the Purple trail loops and saw lots of deer in the woods as well as a few trumpeter swans flying overhead. An excellent day to be out and on skis!

All ski trails have been groomed for skating and tracked for classical skiing. There are a few spots where the snow is thin, particularly in open parts of the track. Wooded areas are in good condition. Skate lanes are generally snow covered, packed, and groomed. There are a few areas where the snow has blown over the trail. Have fun but dress warm, as the sunshine is deceiving, and the cold wind is cutting. Excellent hard wax conditions for classical skiing.
