Multiple (4-5) passes were made over all skate lanes last evening and this morning. Skate deck is firm and transformed. We have enough snow to use some of our special drags to even out the surface. I skated all loops after grooming and found all areas much more even and faster with completely transformed snow. B skis recommended now due to increasing debris from dead leaves and ash trees and a little dirt.

It appeared that the skate deck had been groomed shortly before I began skiing at 2:00 this afternoon. It was solid and fast. There are a few, small dirt spots, leaves, and twigs. I used my B skis but, with a little care, good skis would work. The groomers had done a very nice job.

All trails were groomed last night. The skate deck is rock hard now. Track was not set on much of the purple loop . The high winds have deposited the usual dead leaves in the set track. It’s best to use a hard kick wax to avoid picking up debris in the kick zone. Let’s hope we get snow later this week.

Trails were ok. Good snow cover on skate lanes. Not the smoothest deck but certainly skiable. Need more snow!

Beautiful morning skate skiing. Skied brown and purple. Great grooming, beautiful conditions, but disappointing to see how many boot tracks there were. Someone very clearly walked their dog all over the purple trail. Hoping this isn’t an ongoing issue all winter!

I skied all loops several hours after grooming by head groomer Jeff Welsch. It snowed an inch or two after grooming. The greater than forecast snow along with grooming efforts have provided a smoother skate deck which is still soft but firming up nicely. Plans are to groom and hopefully track tomorrow morning.
