The Highland 18-hole is skiable, but there are many bare spots and tall grass coming through - need more snow. There are places where the paved paths are showing and clumps of dirt.

Highland National was groom today although the skate deck is thin but doable. Also, no classic track was put in.

Surprisingly skiable. Trails aren't groomed but there is just enough light fluffy snow to make your own. If it isn't too cold, you can get in at least an adequate ski.

With this warm weather and rain the ski trail is closed at this time. Hopefully Mother Nature is kind to us in the near future.

Groomed Highland National. Skate deck only. Very thin with grass exposed in some areas.

Full coverage for a beautiful hard skate this morning. Trail is rolled and a bit soft and slow, but great to walk up and ski!

Groomed with corduroy only--snow too shallow for machine tracks but the skier made ones that were there were OK. Skaters had been out, which is fine, but please try not to ski over tracks on the right. Overall conditions good. Very good in some places, fair in others. The exposed grass in some places doesn't pose a danger to your skis. Nice to get out.

Rolled Highland National today. Rolled fairly well with some thin grassy areas exposure. Please be patient trying to work out some quirks on the big loop. Also groomed, a track inside the driving range.

Enough snow to ski, which is great, but only skier=made tracks, which is understandable. High ground is windswept, but you can easily go around. Snow is dry. Great day to ski.
