Afternoon
Firsthand: Freestyle 
[ Trails Open: Partial, Good skis ]
Excellent conditions for skate this afternoon. A perfect combination of a loose powdery layer on a firm, flat base. Tracks are solid and fast. Snowmaking last night was a success, and Mark is out on the Pisten Bully finishing up the spreading of the new snow around the Field Loop.

Excellent for striding today. Tracks were perfect. There were equal numbers of striders and skaters when I skied. Skate lane looked also good: firm with the right amount of loose snow for control. A lot less corn snow than previous days. Groomer was spreading the snow made last night around the Field Loop which may open soon.

Grooming

The Piston Bully was out grooming the man made trail at night. The skate deck was tilled and a new classic track was set. Conditions should be good. The snow makers were busy making more snow. If all goes well we might just have loop soon.

Conditions at mid-day were good for skate and stride, but completely different than yesterday. Skate lanes are mostly deep corn snow, especially up Summerstage Hill. Areas with newly made snow are much firmer. Tracks looked good.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, B skis ]
The Piston Bully was out st night grooming our man made trail. The skate deck was tilled and is in good condition. New classic track was set and is in good condition as well. Expect a soft layer of snow on to of a firm deck. Grooming plans: If the weather allows the snow makers will be out again Tuesday night. Hopefully we will have more of the trail open soon.

Good conditions for skating. Firm surface with a mix of compacted crushed ice and new manmade snow that drifted over from last nights snowmaking efforts around the field loop. Still some crunchy spots and a few ridges, but easy to navigate after the sun came out. Striding tracks are semi-solid and fast, with a few bumps and dips. Very nice skiing.

I had the Pisten Bully out this evening and I groomed the entire skate deck and reset tracks. Grooming plans: The Snow Makers will be making snow tonight into the morning as the weather permits. Hopefully we will have a loop soon, happy skiing!

Skied this morning after seeing Beattle's report. Ski surface was crushed ice, chopped up a bit. East-West leg was not so good, with larger ice chunks, as a result of holding more water over the last couple of days. North-south leg was much better, and Summerstage Hill was great, both up and down. Generally appears to be enough base for now. Striding tracks were okay, a bit icy, but good for double poling.

Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, B skis ]
Good morning, our little bit of man-made snow with stood mother nature's warm up. I pushed some snow in some of the thinning areas and tryed to get our trail skiable again. It's not perfect, but it should ski way better than before grooming. I retilled and reset tracks on the .9 K of man-made trail that we have open. Happy skiing! The Snow Maker's plan on firing up the snow guns as weather permits in the next couple days. As all of you should know, it does not look like we are getting any cold or snow anytime soon.

Due to the up coming warm weather we have decided to suspend further grooming. When the weather cools down we will evaluate the trails. Hopefully we won't lose too much snow.
