All loops on the Teuton side were touched up and new tracks set. There was about an inch of new snow that was worked in. Skate deck and tracks looked amazing, but may be soft with warm temperatures.

I put aside the fancy modern skis and donned the old wooden skis, complete with 3 pin bindings, and did the 9.9 km classic ski loop. Snow is very nice and the grooming was good. Beautiful winter day.

The combi skate/classic Trails have about 3" of powder on a packed base. Skateable, but slow and somewhat awkward. The classic tracks are still fine with good poling for the most part. The classic only side was groomed more recently and is in good shape. Amazing ski of the Sun bowl / loop c yesterday.

All trails on both the Teuton and Valkyrie sides are now groomed and tracked! It was great to see so many friendly folks on the trails today. Happy skiing!

We got a few more inches of beautiful snow! Loops A and B on the Teuton side are groomed and have tracks set. Only one side of Loop C is groomed, no tracks there yet. Valkyrie trails have only been dragged, no corduroy or tracks. Still getting used to our new (larger and heavier) groomer so you may notice some areas where the grooming gets a little messy, especially on tighter or sloped curves. Thanks for your patience while we keep improving! Grooming plans: The plan is to get the rest of the grooming completed Thursday.

2-3" of fresh snow since the last groom. Skied the classic only side "C" loop. Beautiful scenery here.

Freshened up the skate deck on all Teuton trails. It's a good day to get out before temps warm up and things get slushy!

All loops at Valhalla are groomed and tracks set. There was about 7 inches of dry, fully snow from over the weekend that groomed up nicely. The Teuton side has an inch of new snow on it since it was groomed, but the tracks were already skied in and looking good. The Valkeryie side was tracked today, and tracks should set up nicely. The sunbowl loop was groomed and tracks set on the flat areas. There is a 5$ day use fee for the site. The site has a warming shelter, chalet and sled hill also to enjoy. Should be a great weekend to get out and enjoy the trails. Hope to see you out there.

Huge thanks to volunteer, Greg, for getting all of the Teuton trails dragged this morning. We were able to groom and set tracks on all loops on the Teuton side and plan to groom the Valkyrie trails as soon as possible. The snow is pretty dry, but hopefully cold temps will help the tracks set up nicely. Happy skiing and stay warm!

Classic skied the Teuton ABC loop. Trail had a crusty base with light snow cover making the classic track a little hard to follow at times. Downhill portions are tricky due to piled up snow (that froze). Overall the trail was in good condition with a solid base (no bare spots or debris on trail).
