Another fantastic February day on the trails. Morning grooming on JibFly with the Pisten Bull and ginzu grooming on Mother Hen. Temps did get above 32 but with thick clouds there was no melting as the snow is already transformed and transformed snow has a higher melting point. Rossman elementary kids out for the afternoon for skiing, sledding and skating and reports from skiers on the trail all good. There are a few thin/rough/icy couple small bare spots here and there but overall the skiing is very nice  considering the low snow year. A ski on North Loup late yesterday afternoon found fun and fast conditions. Cooler temps keeping the snow in place and no melting. Bit faster with some icy section on trails not freshed groomed but still some nice skiing to be had. Check the board near the office for the latest updates and which trails are in best condition.

Ski conditions rated good to excellent (thanks for your reports, we appreciate it!).

All 64km of trail open with track set on 56km of trail and 15km groomed for skating. 4km of snowshoe trail open. Ice skating rink in very good condition.

Compacted base on trail 2-6″. Snow depth in the woods 6-14″.  Total snowfall this season around 19″. Although this is a low snow year, we spend every dry day outside the winter season preparing the trails to be in the best condition possible so we can have good skiing on minimal snow and the newer grooming equipment does a nice job working with the snow to make for better skiing.
