The warmer temperatures has caused our thin snow pack to compress somewhat. Skiing is still very good overall but expect more debris on the skate deck along with some dirt popping through in the classic track. Skate deck is firm and fast. B skis would be best for now.

Classic skied parts of the red, green, and purple trails. Not groomed, but the skate deck is in great shape, and quite fast. Should be good skiing for the near future.

Despite formidable temperatures and wind chill, skiing on all loops at Greenbush was excellent. The skate deck was groomed last evening. The classic track was firm and quite free of debris. Out of the track the skate deck was firm and much faster than expected for sub zero temperatures. Definitely Start green conditions.

Classic skied the brown trail three times. It had been dragged, probably this morning. Tracks are ok, skate deck good to very good shape.

Wonderful skiing on Monday afternoon. Good conditions, enough snow. I am not familiar with different ski types - B or rock - but any would do.

Millimeter by centimeter Greenbush is approaching peak winter ski conditions. Thanks to the masterful grooming efforts of Jeff Welsch last night and this morning all loops are near perfect for classic and skate. Skate deck is still a bit soft and the classic track is thin in a few places but we're getting there.

Classic skied parts of the red, green, and purple trails. All freshly groomed, with some new track laid down. Very good conditions. Thank you groomers.

Classic skied the brown trail three times. Not groomed, with 1-2" fresh snow. Very skiable, tracks are ok.

I skied the purple loop twice today. I used my best skis. That trail is in great condition. When skiing through the pine trees there were some needles but nothing that slowed me down. I have no photos but it was beautiful out there today.

All skate trails were groomed last night. I could not do anything with the classic track. I skated all of the loops this morning. There is at least 1" of cold new snow on the trail system which slows things down somewhat. Overall there are very good skate conditions on all trails. Classic skiing would be better out of the track for the most part new snow not withstanding. Let's hope new snowfall!
