All the trails have been groomed and track has been set. Because of the large quantity of snow that we got the skate lane may be a little soft but from the areas I tested I think it should still be really good! Enjoy!!

Thursday night all XC ski trails were  rolled. While not leaving fine corduroy the skating is still pretty good on this surface. There was no classic track set. Tonight after dark we are planning to groom roll the whole trail system, lay down some nice cord on the skate lane and set classic track. Things should…

First the good news. Through the last thaw, snow, thaw cycle we actually picked up more base. When I checked the park right before the temps dropped it looks like we had almost complete coverage on the trail (but it just turned to ice). We should have plenty of snow now to groom and get…

This picture was taken about noon last Saturday and Saturday evening is when the temps dropped back down below freezing after the big thaw:     Not all areas of the park look as good as this but we did keep a good chunk of our base after the big thaw. The plan is to…

All trails groomed and track was set for classic. The classic track isn’t super deep.

No new snow but still went out to clean up a few sections of the trail. The “center” trails that was really chunky from the last grooming have been cleaned up and there was a single pass with the ginzu on the rest of the trails to smooth them out and get rid of some…

Sorry for the delayed report but the trails are groomed and the lot is plowed! There is plenty of base for “good” skis but there are a lot of little twigs and a few leaves from all the wind and heavy snow. When I groomed this morning the snow was very sticky so the grooming…

We have all the grooming equipment prepped and ready to go. There was about 2-3″ of super wet snow on the ground this evening and it compacted down to about an inch of depth which was surprising. Assuming that we actually get the 4-6″ of snow predicted for tonight the park should be good to…

We continued the prep of the trails and mowed everything a few weeks back. Hopefully this will help us to avoid the “fuzzy” trails we had during low snow conditions last year. Let it snow!!!

We had a trail work day yesterday and started prepping the trail for winter. A month or so ago the had the main trail between the parking lot and clearing for the MTB skills park  leveled and we spread winter rye on that section to get some vegetation going before winter. We also took out may…
