Mercer received 3" of new wet snow. The trail was groomed and a solid track ran the whole trail. Skied Wolf, Moose, Spruce Hills, Homested, Bluebird, Otter, and Voss Lake loop. The trees were covered in white and the trail was in the best shape all year. Had the trail to myself. What a hidden gem of a trail.

Wonderfully freshly groomed and tracked trails. The tracks were full depth throughout except for a very few places. The skate lane was wonderful as well. The warm trailhead cabin is nice for changing clothes and just warming up. This place is a favorite of mine because of the beautiful wooded terrain that is perfect for xc skiing and great grooming.

Trail is a little soft from the recent snow but always a pleasure to ski. Tracks are in very good shape. Skate deck is also good but still has a few thin spots that are easily avoided.
