Parking lot was as busy as I have seen it this year. Trail conditions were pretty good albeit slow. The groomers have done great work with the very wet snow from Thursday. There is a solid base in most places with the sun affected areas starting to get thin. Things really started getting really sticky towards the noon hour. I would not recommend race skis as there is still some debris here and there. The skiing should still be pretty good Sunday.

Skied purple and a fun loop. I felt cover was better than expected and I could have gotten away with good skis. The base had been rolled but was not setup as of 10:30 am. I think it will be great early Saturday. The thinnest areas are the southwest part of the segment that gets the westerly wind. It also happened to be the fastest as it was a mix of icy snow. As always, thanks to the fantastic groomers!

Observation [ Trails Open: Most ]
|
Wednesday, 5:30 pm - 34 degrees, no wind. Currently rock ski conditions. Our NKMN Storm Youth Ski Team used the Red and Brown trails for practice on Monday and Tuesday evenings, but not tonight. Trails have slowly deteriorated since last Sunday with today's high reaching 45. Most of the trail system still has coverage of a firm, semi-crusty snow base. There are bare spots and dirt showing through in a number of locations and gray ice patches in other locations. The Brown Trail is probably the best.

Grooming [ Trails Open: All, ]
|
This morning I groomed the skate lanes on the Purple, Brown and Red. There is a thin base with debris and rocks/roots exposed in various locations that can be avoided. Good skiing overall with a flat deck but use discretion with good skis. Classic track remains present on all trails but very thin in many spots with some ground exposed in the tracks.

Skated the full purple and fun loop which is purple to red back to purple then green downhill and back to purple, all the downhill with least amount of climbing. Thin base, some debris tilled up, a few stones. Skate deck was good, not exactly level in spots, could use more snow. Tracks were 1/2 depth washed out in a few spots. Sure, trail took a beating with all of the grooming to remove the car ruts. Get out and enjoy while you can.

Great skiing today! Groomed trails. I skated on the green trail and it was very good! Watch for a few small stones on a couple of the uphills. The classic track is ok with some leaf debris.

Skied Brown and Purple. Tracks on purple showing some wear but provided good glide. Brown tracks in good condition providing good glide. Skate deck solid but showing wear. Great grooming miracles working with below normal snow amounts. Couldn't locate the donation box.

It was fun at Greenbush today. I skied all trails except the purple and pink. There is generally decent coverage, though there are thin spots. The ruts from the vehicle that was on the trail have mostly been groomed out. However, there are some uneven spots due to the ruts and some thin/bare spots because of vehicle driving on the trail. Keep alert while skiing, especially on downhill sections.
