Overall trail conditions are excellent. The classic tracks are washed out in about 10% of the trail, but otherwise in good condition. Trail was softening up today in the warm temps, but still plenty of base and great conditions overall.

Grooming was in progress. Classic tracks are excellent. Great job by Tom McKinley! Enough good snow to cover ice.

Beautiful morning on the trails at Quarry Hill after the snowfall. The trails were well-covered with new snow, but hadn't been groomed yet early this morning, so there wasn't much clean gliding going on. Classic track was only intact in a few places.

The snow that has fallen over the last couple of days has resulted in improved conditions. There has been no new grooming, but there is a decent track over much of the trail that has been formed as a result of skiers doing laps on the previously laid-down classic track. Several people were also out for some skate skiing and they seemed to be getting decent glide through the soft new snow.

Conditions for classic skiing are very good at Quarry Hill Park. I would estimate that about 70% of the classic track is in excellent condition. The track is minimal on about 15% of the trail and nonexistent on about 15% of the trail. It is a very fast track but it is not icy. Thanks, groomers!

Easy skate ski through the entire trail this morning. Perfect conditions as the trail had been recently groomed, smoothing out any icy patches. Skate deck was firm and flat. Given the temperature, the trail was lightening fast as well. A real treat! Another excellent grooming effort! Thank you!

The skating deck was refreshed this morning. The classic track was still in pretty good shape so it was left as is. 37 degrees at the time of writing this report. The snow was already starting to soften.

Trails were in great shape. The snow had set up in the cold and was firm by this afternoon. Our kids loved the nature center too. Hard to beat great skiing, snapping turtles, fish, and snakes all in one scenic stop!
