Faster snow compared to yesterday, still very enjoyable. More caution to exercise on the downhills since the soft corduroy is gone in some places hence skis can be less stable. Would be better with the sun but very good conditions overall.

Great conditions this morning at French around 10am. Soft thin corduroy above a hard base, snow getting faster, and almost no icy spots. All trails in great shape.

Out with the groomers this morning - they are working hard! Great coverage throughout French - deck is solid. Top snow post-groom was a bit soft this morning but should set up nicely with cooler temps.

Surprisingly good skiing with only a few icy areas and a few leaves and cones occasionally. Given the recent rain/snow/slush, this is great skiing. Used best skis with no regrets. Great job, groomers! All trails very skiable!

Skated all the loops. Most of the snow was soft and water-saturated but not yet sloppy slushy. There were some packed sections where the snow was just soft. I encountered several spots with bumps in the skate deck. Some tree debris here and there but all easily avoidable. Classic tracks looked in rough shape.

Skate skied at around 3:30 pm. Snow is getting icy and fast, still enjoyable but need a good grooming for better grip in some sections.

Skied freestyle all trails around 11:00 am. Grooming has clearly improved, trails are even, classic trails looked in good shape too. Snow was getting somewhat soft, although faster than yesterday a few icy patches including on the two descents of Skyline trail (some caution to control your skis).

Beautiful trails today. The trails were a little dirty or something in multiple spots but can't complain. Near-perfect warmer conditions, nice consistency and no rutting or unevenness or anything. Very nicely maintained trails.

Nice day at French. Nicely packed and very few ruts. Observed that the tracks looked very good. Looks like the report says they are grooming every day.

Skied all trails around 9:30 am. Good coverage, no debris, classic probably in fair shape only. Freestyle grooming good except for the grooming equipment tracks (see picture) and some unevenness from time to time. Snow getting faster with further compaction.
