Trail Detail
Notes
This trail is very hilly, rolling and scenic. It winds around five different lakes, through stands of maple, aspen and balsam. There are a couple fairly steep hills requiring intermediate skiing skills. A shelter with a fire ring is located on the trail.Trail Reports

1-2" of snow fell on Tuesday. Wednesday's forecast calls for temperatures around freezing and additional snow, rain, and/or freezing rain. We will be holding off on doing any grooming until Thursday.

A friend, Dan W., reports: The trails were well-groomed however they were very icy and fast. So beware! This is classic only. He suggests, if you want to skate ski find some nice wide ski trails for safety.

Skied for around 5 minutes and gave up. My skin skis had no kick on the glazed tracks. Perhaps I should have used Klister skis.

Grooming [ Trails Open: All, ]
|
3-4" light, fluffy snow fell overnight. All loops were tracked today. Still a few thin spots, but overall good conditions. Note: A few hundred yards of the outer red/blue loop starting at the first snowmobile trail crossing is currently plowed due to logging in the area. This activity should be ending soon.

Skied one of our North country favorites. Escanaba is well groomed and the tracks were fast. Beautiful piles of snow!

Today is the best skiing of the season for me! I used my good but not best skis, though I could have. I skied the green loop, a little bit of fresh snow in the tracks, which for me, makes for perfect classic skiing. Very fast glide today with perfect traction on the uphills.

I skied the green loop today. The snow quality is about perfect. It's packed well with very few things spots, with no contact with any rocks. The tracks are all set perfectly and lifted and set down in the right places. The glide is great even with my waxless skis. Tomorrow I will come back with better waxable skis.
