Afternoon
Observation 
Boulder is still not groomed. There's some fluffy snow on top of a crust that you punch through. Footprints. We didn't even try it.

Afternoon
Firsthand: Classic 
[ Rock skis ]
We did some laps on Bear Paw Thursday, so there's a kicked in track now. There was enough snow to roll, maybe not to set tracks, but it hadn't been groomed as of late afternoon. It had been heavily used by walkers (which I think Boulder was allowing given the lack of snow) but was still better than I expected.

Morning
Observation 
There is not quite enough snow, and even if there were, Boulder has not been brushed or mowed, so there's a lot of grass and tansy and such poking up. There are some trees down on Ninepine.
