I arrived around 11:30 this morning and was impressed that most of the core trails had already been groomed for skating. Classic track had also been set on some of the core trails. Additionally, Wolf Tracks had already been groomed for both skate and Classic skiing. I used my new Solomon S-Lab cold skate skis which I had waxed with Swix 7 glide wax. I found skate conditions to be excellent with a solid and fast skate deck. I took a long route out to Nekoosa and Wolf Tracks. Conditions on Nekoosa and Wolf Tracks were the best I have ever encountered there. I enjoyed a brisk tail wind all the way to the cabin. The wind was against me on the way back but it wasn't that bad. By the time I finished Nekoosa and Wolf Tracks, the skate deck was starting to get a wee bit icy. I finished my 22 kilometer outing in just over two hours. It was a most enjoyable ski outing. Kudos to the groomers for delivering such awesome conditions after yesterday's rain.

Grooming [ Trails Open: All, ]

We survived the rain yesterday and ended up with about an inch and a half of snow which really helped improve the trail conditions! Now that the snow has drained out a bit from all that moisture, the Pisten Bully was able to hit the trails this morning and till up a few ski routes: Silver Strider, Red Pine, Nepco's Cruise, XC Express, Tower Rd, Base Loop. A smaller drag is out setting skate decks on Tornado Alley and Survivor. Conditions on the fresh groomed trails are great with full depth classic tracks and good edge control on the skate decks. There may be some minor wet spots in a few low areas this morning, but everything is drying out nicely. More snow in the forecast tonight.

True spring conditions out at the park this morning: it was too warm to groom last night and the trails are pretty sticky and wet this morning. A great day to bust out the skin skis if you have them! Photo was taken on Silver Strider at 8:30am. The good news is that we have a ton of snow on the trails: 16" in spots.

Conditions are excellent out there right now! Our snow depth on trails is averaging around 12-14" so there's lots of snow to play in! The Pisten Bully went out and groomed up about 15km of interior trails and one long one: River Run! Temperatures will warm up quickly so be sure to head out early.

Currently snowing very heavily! It snowed about 4" last night with more expected during the day today. The Pisten Bully went out this morning to groom up some trails. Expect soft and slow conditions today. Grooming plans: The main grooming effort will take place overnight tonight once the snow stops.Winter just keeps coming!

All trails have now been re-groomed after receiving about 4" of snow a few days ago. Conditions are the best they've been all year and the trails will be much firmer and faster than yesterday now that the snow has set up a bit. All three long trails were freshly groomed this morning! Don't miss out on these excellent March conditions! We've still got about a foot of base on the trails, so I think we'll be skiing for a while yet :).

Great skiing almost all trails groomed after 4" snowfall yesterday, including the longer segments. Deep tracks, pristine conditions. Spring skiing at its finest.

Fantastic weekend at Winter Park. Tracks were excellent on both days with only minor tree debris at the end of River Run. Bit soft in the afternoons but no complaints! Great for skating also and with all the snow they have, skiing should be good there for some time to come. The crowd of children racing on Saturday/Sunday assures us that the future is good for US skiing.
