The Piston Bully was out at night. The skate deck was tilled and is in good condition. New classic tracks were set and they are in good condition as well.

Trail was getting pretty soft but still skiing ok. Not mushy but headed there. Sections of tan snow on the lower sections. Tracks looked wetter and were melting flat. Nothing that cold weather and a grooming can't fix. Ski Ya Next Year.

All the loops and segments of the manmade trails are open. The skate deck has been tilled at night and is in very good shape. Track were set previously and were not touched tonight but are still full depth with a glazed base. Magic Carpet narrows slightly near the bottom. Grooming plans: Pisten Bully should be out Tuesday night to freshen things up for New Years Day but watch for grooming report to verify. Have a great New Years Eve ski!

The man-made trail skied pretty well this afternoon despite the sun and warm temperatures. The deck was slushy but not terribly wet slushy and still icy down Magic Carpet and somewhat in the woods. The tracks were busier and in good shape considering circumstances. Thank you snowmakers and groomers!

It's not perfect but it will ski. The Piston Bully was out at night chewing up the ice that was left after the warm up. We've lost a considerable amount of snow. I was able to push snow onto areas that were bare and icy. The trail is narrower in areas. Classic track was set throughput and is in ok condition. Skate deck is in good condition. Snowmaking will resume when the weather allows. Please be patient with trail closers as we have a lot of trail that needs more snow in order to survive the next warm spell.

Pretty hard and icy. Solid ice section at bottom of the magic carpet. Groomers have done a great job building a base and keeping it solid despite the warm temps, but unless you like skiing on ice, not worth the drive today.

Recent rain and warm temps have definitely taken a toll on man-made trail. But, the trail is still well covered and very skiable with a firm, wet, "rough", and somewhat dirty base. Magic Carpet downhill is good until it meets the base loop. Look out for ice/slush/standing water on the trail and in the tracks at the base. Tracks are still there in a much more thawed shallow/wider form. I was very lonely, with only 5-7 other skiers on the trail in upper 40's temps! Very blessed to be skiing thanks to all the trail snowmaking volunteers!!

Did some laps tonight. Man made loop in good condition all things considered. No bare spots. No issue getting an edge.

(Paul Dix)

Despite the 42 degrees, mist and fog, the ski conditions were surprisingly good. It was enjoyable 15k ski.

(Don Howell)

Skied the manmade loops around noon on classic skis. Skiing was good despite the temperatures rising into the 40's with fog and mist. Mostly clean snow with occasional spots of pine needles and deer tracks. Skate lanes were still firm but softening. Some skaters thought it was better than yesterday due to a softer top layer. Tracks were still holding shape but becoming slick or moist. Lower loops had slick or wet tracks and upper wooded loops were just slick. There was a very short section near the trailhead obviously slushy/wet.
