All trails were groomed and track set this morning. The snow firmed up nicely. Winds have calmed down since last night. Temps in the low 20' s today. Very good conditions.

Groomers were out Saturday evening and early Sunday morning setting solid tracks and good corduroy. Winds were blowing snow bunnies and twigs from the snow laden trees. Volunteers were flicking sticks off the trails to make way for many out on the trails. Was great to see the Eden Prairie Ski Team enjoying the snow and having fun maneuvering through a timed technical course.

First time at Wolverine and it did not disappoint! Skate deck was groomed well although slow because of the cold temps and new snow from Friday night. Classic tracks were set nicely overall with some softness on the right pole plants. Didn't have the energy to explore the Powderhorn loop, but all others were fun.

All trails groomed and fully open. We received about 6" of snow last night. Looks like a sunny bluebird day come out and enjoy!

The tracks were set very nicely. The way to go today was classic. Slow going in the skate lane. The day was sunny and bright. Trails were in good condition and the chalet was warm.

All trails were groomed and track set early this morning. The snow was soft but should set up with freezing temperatures. Toasty chalet to warm up.

All trails were groomed and track set this morning. Thanks to Mother Nature for the foot of snow she provided! Ladies learn to ski today- there were a lot of participants, hope they all enjoyed it and keep skiing! Go Heikki Lunta Go! Had snow globe conditions this morning turning into light falling snow in the afternoon.

Trails were skate lane groomed and track set this morning. The tracks are shallow. When more snow arrives, groomers will be at the ready preparing to capture a great base while the temperatures are cold. Night temps are in the low teens. The Ladies Learn to Ski Lessons and lunch are still on for this Saturday 9-11:30. Warm chalet is open.

Skated all the trails with the exception of Cliffhanger. Trail conditions are decent with a fairly firm skate deck. The Wolverine loop has the best overall skate conditions with the Powderhorn loop being a little softer. There is still some undulation in the trails due to lack of snow depth for a base but nothing that will inhibit your skating. Very little organic matter showing and about 1-2" of new snow since the Monday grooming. Note there are no classic tracks until more snow.

Groomers were out this morning but were only able to pack the snow to help freeze up the wet areas. Wolverine Loop and Novice Loop done but still lots of sticks and stubble showing through. No tracks made. Powderhorn Loop not touched today. It would have destroyed what coverage there was. Bring your rock skis and keep doing the snow dance! Welcome Sisu participants, family, friends, and volunteers. Wolverine will have a display at the EXPO Saturday afternoon.
