With a warm Saturday and overnight lows of 3 degrees I was unsure of what to expect early Sunday morning. Was it worth the trip up from St. Paul? Absolutely! Spring skiing - nope, this was mid-winter ski conditions. Minor spots of tree debris in the northern conifers, and only a couple spots on south-facing climbs with a hint of ice that softened late morning, otherwise good edge control throughout. Classic tracks were glazed in some exposed sections otherwise blue wax trails. Happy Trails indeed!

Really awesome skiing conditions with good corduroy to work with with it throughout the course. Perfect temps and trails were well groomed.

Beautiful skate today. What a perfectly designed course. Wide trail, professionally groomed and entertaining terrain. Chatted with a board member after in the Nordic Center. Interesting history. A+ rating. Everyone involved, ie., (Mora Ski Club) is so friendly. Must experience!

Skate deck was firm and fast, jumped into the classic track on the downhills and it was great. A little debris under the spruces and pines, but a non-factor. Worth the trip if you've never been here, Nordic Center is wonderful!

Beautiful skate and classic trails thru-out system. We skated. Pristine grooming, few people on gorgeous, wide trails. Fast and fun skiing today!

Fresh grooming overnight and the tracks were crisp and the skate deck solid. Beautiful conditions for any skier to be out on the trails.

Fantastic skiing in Mora! Sweet fresh corduroy groomed this morning! Classic tracks set, groomer was still out when I left.

Beautiful condition today at Mora there was some light fresh snow on top of a very firm skate deck. The classic tracks were in great shape. It was a great day for a ski and there wasn't very many skiers at Mora. If you haven't skied at Mora you should get out and try it.

The trails are in great condition and seem ready for the race this weekend. Very little debris. Classic tracks seemed fast too.

Skied this morning for about an hour. There must have been recent strong winds because there is a great deal of tree debris on the trail. Especially so in the classic tracks. I would have skied longer but the litter made for a less than ideal ski.
