We got about 1-2" of non-sticky snow yesterday. It was a a good glide on top of hard icy base. I did Blue to Oberholtzer Trail in Voyaguer's Park and back to Orange Loop. Much of it was descent skiing. There are areas in swamps that had melted into large puddles and refroze. Small rocks are poking through and some bare spots. So, definitely Spring skiing conditions but still fun and mostly snow covered but not with good skis.

Skating was fun with just enough new snow to get a good edge on top of the ice. There are sticky spots but very few exposed rocks on the Green and Orange trails. Northwest wind kept it cold even in the bright sun.

I started at 7:30 a. m. before it warmed up, about 22°. I did the Red Loop which is snow covered but has many needles/twigs and debris in pine areas (picture). On two bare hills you have to take skis off and walk down. Green and Orange have pretty good snow though hard, icy. Most bare spots are small that you can step around.

I skied in 1" fresh snow in track on green, orange and 1.5" on blue shack loop! Still good cover, though quite slow. Isolated rock and small bare spots.

Fishscales worked well on the light dusting of snow from last night. Green, Orange and yellow have good snow base, but is quite icy under fluff.

-4° but sunny and no wind. With face mask I was nice and warm. Wonderful morning for a ski. The track is in great shape on Blue and Red Loop, pretty fast glide.

Grooming

4" of new snow, cold temperatures. Yesterday we used both rollers, this morning we set tracks and groomed all the Tilson Creek trails. After our trail work last week clipping sticks where we couldn't mow the trails look great! Tracks are clean, skate deck level.

13° and 1.5-2" of fresh fluff ongoing. Some skiers skied the track in on green and orange loops. I skied in blue shelter loop tracks where I could see them. Some were completely covered level. It was easy to break trail in new light snow.
