Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Most, B skis ]
The Piston Bully was out at night grooming the man made loops at the park. The skate deck was tilled and is in great condition. New classic track was set and are in great condition as well. Some areas of the classic track are getting a little shallow due to the hard pack under the trail. As is the case this winter the best skiing will be early in the morning and after sunset. We will suspend further grooming until the weather cools off. Hopefully the trails hold up.

Fresh groomed trail on man made loop early this morning with corn/sugary top on solid base. 28 F made it for delightful and fast ski. Put in 31km on the loops. By the time I was done, snow transformed to mushy snow cone type but still good. Parking lot was full when I left mid morning. Thanks to groomers for keeping us skiing - about only decent place left in Southern WI right now.

Snowcone snow transitioning to softer slush as the day progressed on the snowmaking loops. Chopped up early, with fast conditions on the downhills. Warmth and the sun causing compaction and slowing of the surface. Not much in the way of debris or dirty spots. Tracks are getting icy.

I had the Pisten Bully out again Monday night. All manmade trails have been tilled, groomed, and fresh tracks set all around. Expect another great day of skiing especially early before the sun starts softening things up. Happy Trails!!

I've been skiing LP (as have most skiers in a 100 mile radius) to keep in ski shape for our annual trek to Hayward. Skied this morning and the man-made loop was excellent! Kudos to the grooming crew for getting it back in shape every day in the warming times. Skied yesterday and it was getting pretty sugary on the up hills but they got it packed down well for this morning. The trick is to get out there before it gets too warm and skied in. Way to go LP groomers! Skate lane is good to excellent, tracks are set and many happy classic skiers!

Excellent conditions for skate and stride this morning on the snowmaking loops. A generally shallow layer of soft corn snow on a firm base provided a fast and fun surface for working on fine tuning your technique. A bit more loose snow up in the woods than on the lower trail. Random ridges on lower Magic Carpet.

I had the Pisten Bully out Sunday night to till, groom, and set new tracks on the entire manmade trails. Everything is in great shape and with some luck it will setup and have some fast skiing in the morning. Expect sugar snow conditions turning soft as the day progresses. Enjoy the day on the trails!

Corn snow conditions for skate on the snowmaking loops this morning. Last nights grooming was quickly broken down by the heavy traffic, but it was still faster than yesterday. A fast descent down Summerstage Hill was good fun. Magic Carpet is very good at the top but badly rutted towards the bottom. New tracks made for easy gliding for striders. Beautiful day for easy cruising with your friends.

The Piston Bully was out Saturday night grooming the man made loops. The skate deck was tilled and is in great condition. New tracks were set and are in great condition as well. Ski it while you can, skiing in the morning should be great.
