Today was pretty much a repeat day of yesterday’s “perfect” conditions. Wind did pick up in the afternoon blowing off the beautiful frosted trees but the evergreens are snow covered, and sunshine was awesome. All the trails (64km) open. We have been grooming daily and will continue to do so on through the Holidays. Fresh grooming today on about 40km of trail. Compacted base 5-8″. 57 km tracked for classic only, 15km groomed for skating. The north end of Bullhead is a bit rough but skiable throughout or take skis off and walk. All trails are groomed for classic. Skaters Waltz/ extension, Single and Double green, Suicide Hill and North Loup groomed for skating. There is also a track set on North Loup for classic.
Total snowfall this season has been 35″. The trails are open for day skiing and the current fee is $15 to use the trails for the day. (Maplelag ski reports on skinnyski and link to share ski experience!)
