My fiancée and I are visiting from Chicago and classic skied East Overlook, West Overlook, Lower Snowman, Upper Snowman, and B&B Loop. Pretty much all the track was in great condition. Thanks to the staff that groom so out-of-towners like us can enjoy some excellent trails!

Sweetness and perfection. Skied all the trails at Pincushion today. Grooming was recent after a 4 to 5 inches of new snow on Wednesday. Classic tracks were firm with a little dusting of new snow at the bottom. Temps were just above 0 and polar wax provided all the kick needed. Deck was firm. No issues with outside pole plants plunging. Only complaint was the tracks were too curvy sometimes to stay in them. But great day, thanks to mother nature and the grooming crew.

Four inches of fresh powder over an already great base of trail! I skied behind the groomer as they rolled the trails first and then piston bully beautiful tracks at the end! I'm excited to bring my women's Endurance Adventures ski trip group here in the coming days!

Classic skied the Pincushion Mt loop, along with all the green trails and Canyon Curves. Conditions are excellent, and all trails are being Piston Bully groomed as I was out there. I used B skis, but you could use good skis with a little care.
