Grooming 
[ Trails Open: All, Good skis ]
Lake of the Isles groomed today post Luminary Loppet. The groomed trail is mostly on or next to the outside Luminary path. There is also a section closer to shore on the east side south of Euclid. Full coverage, but not enough snow depth to set classic tracks. [ Per the Loppet: The ice under the Lake Street bridge between Isles and Bde Maka Ska is thin and should not be crossed. The ice between Burnham bridge and Cedar Lake in the Cedar Lake channel is thin and should not be crossed. -- Ed. ]

Got onto the lakes from Theo south. Brownie is only rolled but Cedar was groomed. The snow seems to be bonding well to the ice, but it's still quite thin to the underlying ice, making me think that if I took my dog skijoring he might struggle a bit with traction. The little bit of land section to the east of Cedar lake was not groomed. Pure ice in the tunnel underneath the rr bridge connecting Cedar to Brownie so be careful there. I didn't get to other lakes.
