Grooming 
[ Trails Open: Partial, B skis ]
Upper Gunflint has had over a foot of snow so far this season. We have packed the whole system with our Bisten Bully 100 and have good early season conditions. Warren's Road, Big Pine and our lighted trail, Little Pine, are in good very good shape. These are all groomed with a classic track and skate deck. Other trails are in variabe condition, but skiable with B skis. Grooming plans: We will be out grooming as we get more snow.
