The Lester-Amity trail offers 15K of varied terrain for beginner to experienced skiers through pine, aspen, and birch forests. An additional 3K circles the Lester Park Golf Course and is accessible from the main Lester-Amity Trail. The openness of the golf course offers an excellent place for beginning cross-country skiers, and several short cuts are available. There is also a 5K trail portion that is lit in the mornings and evenings.

Fast conditions this morning on a well laid out track. Beautiful colors in the sky as first light approaches sunrise! Skied everything but the H connector. The groomer was just arriving as I got started. Skate deck should be firm and fresh yet depending on how many took advantage of the trails today!

I skied around the two main, large loops with classic technique several times this morning. (The map shows this as ABCMNO). The tracks were in excellent to very good shape. I really enjoyed this skiing. Shortly after noon, I stopped skiing as I was getting tired, and the tracks were rapidly getting softer and wetter with the rising temperature. I just wished I had arrived earlier in the day to enjoy more of the skiing when the tracks were just outstanding!

Great fresh grooming on whole course including all side trails. Beautiful spring skiing today. Skate deck was slow due to temps and fresh snow, but is well-packed/not soft. Classic track is quite a bit faster.

Fresh groom at Lester! Made it on to just about everything there. Skate deck felt fast with minimal ice. Classic tracks looked great.

Phenomenal conditions this afternoon at Lester Park. Tracks were well-set with little glazing. The skate deck looked excellent also. Enjoy!

Gorgeous day out- went just after noon- groomers must have been by this morning, fresh skate and classic decks. It was a bit bumpy on the D loop, every foot or so there were divets. No biggie but made for some vibrations. Overall just lovely.

It was an excellent night for skiing. The classic tracks were in very good conditions throughout except in a few corners. The skate deck looked well-used but also in good shape. CJ in the Chalet was friendly and chatty.

Perfect conditions today. Million thanks to the groomers who've done amazing job. classic track had a little glaze. Swix extra blue didn't do it so I added a little purple Klister for some awesome kick.

Lester Park was in mint condition today for skating, even with heavy use yesterday and today. What a great job by our groomers. Classic looked good too. Thank you groomers!

Beautiful day! Groomed with both classic and skate tracks open. Nice fluff on the skate track and fast classic track. Completed the full outer loop around the trails. Beautiful afternoon with less than 5 people spotted out.
