The trails groomed up real fine this morning also. We ended up grooming 55 km of skate lanes and resetting 10 km of classic tracks. All 95 km skied well today. Recreational and competitive skiers were very happy with the controllable but firm trail condition. 3 groomers headed out in the AM to regroom 55 km of Skate lanes and may set some new classic tracks if needed. SISU course is looking good, a few thin areas under the pines… but 1 week can change thin areas quickly…with shovels or praying
Wednesday night 6:15 PM
The trails groomed up great this morning, Cold temps at 9 AM warmed up quickly by noon with the sun. All 95 km skied well today. The new 1.5- 2 inches of snow really was great to groom, Recreational skiers were very happy. 3 groomers headed out in the AM to regroom all 55 km of Skate lanes and may set some new classic tracks if needed.
Wednesday morning 10 am
2 more inches overnight, 95 open for skiing, 80 k tracked and groomed this morning!
Tuesday 6 PM
100% open again today with 95 km groomed. The weather sure has been cooperating. 5 groomers out this morning taking care of 95 k of trails. We are 100 % open with very good conditions. Early morning groom crew of Pig Heart, Crasher, Wide Track , Wully Bully and Patner took care of grooming this morning. All skate lanes regroomed and all classic tracks reset. We will be back out in the early AM doing it again since it is snow again! A few thin spots under the Christmas Trees or steeper down hills but not many.
The owner of Windy Ridge Nature Preserve was very disappointed on 12/25 when Ridge Runner was “closed” (trail closed sign in the center of trail facing forward) and several skiers skied past the Trail Closed Sign. He turned a few of the younger skiers back and shared a picture of an adult skier passing one of his trail cams. When a trail is closed it is closed for a reason….mainly safety. Do not ski on closed trails please.
Monday 6 PM
