Firsthand: Classic Secondhand 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Good skis ]
We launched from the ANC trailhead at 8:30 am and quickly encountered fast and furious conditions which, for the most part, were fun to ski! The freshly groomed tracks and skate deck had a slight glaze due strong north wind in 32 degree. Great tracks. Be sure to check for potential closing due to the expected warmup. Carpe Skiem!

The ANC hosted a bus load of Zephyrs from St. Mary's in Menasha today in 36 degree temps under a gray sky. For most of these well-mannered 8th graders it was their first time on skinny skis, let alone seeing a Piston Bully in action. They quickly learned they were over dressed! The tracks were the better choice today given the temps. Worth the drive. Carpe Skiem!

The 1.6k loop is open, groomed, and track set. It was a cold and windy morning. Strong winds filled in the tracks in several spots. The skate deck seems firm. Grooming is excellent as always, but the windy conditions made for a cold and challenging classic session.

Conditions were optimal first thing in morning. Firm deck on 1.6 Km trail. Not much traffic, therefore grooming held up well. Adjacent diagonal tracks looked good. Worth the drive from Green Bay.

The FAB 4 Today: fast, firm, fun and fabulous! Skied in 31F degree temps, a light wind and a cloudy sky. Excellent conditions for both skaters and striders. Carpe Skiem!

"This is great" proclaimed a skater as he glided past me in the near perfect tracks I enjoyed this morning. Conditions were fabulous, skiing under a cloudy sky in 31 degree temps. As you can see, The ANC is well equipped to augment Mother Nature when she needs it. Carpe Skiem!

Nearly a mile of the trails are open. Good snow; no icy areas and relatively hard. Fun to get out on snow in the NE Wisconsin area!

Started first thing this morning, before the rest of the entire state showed up. 1.6K of pretty nice conditions (they opened Mammoth yesterday), with solid base and not too icy through the stadium- hills were just starting to get a bit soft by 9:30 am. With the extra natural snow on surrounding turf and the light conditions it was a bit difficult to see the trail at points (especially on Mammoth), but the additional hill work was greatly appreciated. Tracks were better than expected, with fast and skiable nearly full depth throughout (where present)- a few gaps and side switches, just through the biathlon range. Really appreciated the free equipment demos starting 9am. Great job all around, Ariens!

The ANC received about 2" of snow from Mother Nature today along with a massive number of skiers including a big group of youthful striders from Wausau. Conditions were tough, particularly for striders; poor visibility and soft! Great workout and equally great to see so many smiling faces.

We got some very heavy wet snow early morning, which made for some very slow sticky skiing on the newly expanded 1.6 km loop. So nice to see so many kids, families, and ski teams enjoying this first class facility! Major kudos to the ANC groomers, thank you!
