Still good coverage on the trail. With temps freezing overnight and up in the 40's in the afternoon timing is everything. Yesterday with full sun early the trails up top became soft and slow by noon. Today I was off Y and W by 11:30 and they were just starting to soften. A good chance to work on weight shift and balance. No grooming until the next new snow(??).

Finally temperatures dropped into the teens and stayed there all day today. John C was able groom so used Ginzu scratch up some of the skate lanes. Light lake effect flurries coming in off and on all day. The light snow in the older classic tracks provided kick, so skiers said skins were working. The light snow slowed things down on the hills.

16 degrees at around noon, 15-20 mph winds, with light snow showers throughout our ski. Skied Trails A, B, D, H, W, Y. Around an inch of fresh snow over a renovated skate deck - a little crunchy. Classic skied with skins. Tracks were solid and fun to ski in with the light fresh snow in them. In my opinion, best skiing currently in the Midwest/Great Lakes! We will be back Saturday and Sunday!

We were traveling from Canada (Gatineau Loppet) towards Hayward and stumbled upon this gem of beautifully groomed trails. It was great skiing this morning. Some of us skated and others did classic - we amazed how good the snow held up and how beautiful the trails were set up. Highly recommend this trail system.

Winter perfection is here! My third day skiing here and the best conditions yet. Skate deck is finally beginning to pack down nicely, especially on B. Z and H are still a bit softer. About 10 inches of snow over the past several days. Good skis! Don't miss out on the opportunity to ski an amazing system with full coverage.

Lots of fresh snow here. Looks to be about 11 inches or more. The demo groomer did a great job grooming the trails. There was a noticable difference. Tracks were perfect. Skate lane was great, but a bit soft because of all of the fresh snow. This is a favorite of mine when up in the UP. Snowed here Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Nice lodge facilities.

Great conditions as Valley Spur continues to get lake effect snow bands every day. After a full groom this morning we received another 2" of light snow this morning. Classic was excellent with fresh snow in the tracks. Skate deck is solid and light fluff did not slow anything down. Don't hesitate to come up.

Good lake effect snow over the last three days, so John C groomed the system each day. Excellent classic conditions. Skate deck has firmed up with temps getting colder each night. A local ski shop is offering free rentals on site tomorrow, plus new skis for those who want to test the latest models. There will be free snowshoe rental tomorrow for our two trails that are well marked. We are having a fundraiser to purchase new grooming equipment. Free hot dogs for everyone.

Most trails are now tracked and in pretty good condition. Some variable conditions with some thin spots, so check out downhills before descending.
