I spent a beautiful morning on the trails. Groomed the whole system several times to knock the powder down. It was still soft at noon. But I went over the skating lane at sunset and it had set up well. It should be fast for you on Sunday. All the system has a skating lane and classic track. Enjoy.

Skate deck is in good shape, thin in spots but not a problem. Some sections were a little slow owing to softer conditions and somewhat drier snow, but overall ok speed. Track are pretty good too.

Trails look great! All trails are groomed with a skating lane and a set of classic tracks. For the first time this year trails have full snow coverage. It is soft for now but I expect it to set well eventually. Have fun and enjoy the woods.

Grooming

All trails have a skating track and a set of classic tracks. Exception is chuckwagon, which is closed and not groomed because of lack of snow and exposed ice. Watch out for icy spots. Some leaves and twigs on the trail. Have fun!

Coverage was fairly good given the lack of snow this season. There were less bare spots to worry about and the groomers had widened a good portion of the trails. The skate deck was firm and very fast. Deep Woods was actually in very good shape as some kind soul had gone through and removed sticks/branches and the snow coverage was good in there.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Rock skis ]
I groomed the skating lane on most of the trails. Just not enough snow to retrack the classic track. The wind brought down more leaves and some of the classic track as leaves in them. Snow is thin on some of south exposure trails. I didn't do anything with Deepwoods because of the leaves. Have fun!

All trails have classic tracks and a skating lanes. Snow is thin on the east side trail system where a school race was held on Tuesday. Think snow and enjoy.

Fairly good coverage with just a few thin spots to watch for. The skate deck was hard and fast, especially the sections used by the high school racers this past Tuesday. Deep Woods and Finland were slightly softer, but still fast.

Everything has a skating lane and a set of classic tracks. Skating lanes look great some of the classic tracks are shallow but it worked fairly good. Have fun out there!

There was a 1 to 2 inch layer of fluffy new snow on top of the icy base. There is fairly good coverage, but watch out for the few existing bare spots that go down to dirt. The groomer was heading out as I was leaving at around 4:15 pm.
