Trails are open. Good to excellent conditions. We had a few warm days last week but the snow and trails held out great. There is good snow and base to work with and the trails are grooming out well. Cooler temps keeping the snow snappy, a few glazed areas to watch out for but overall nice skiing.
Grooming Friday afternoon and evening: Bullhead Lake and Bootleg extension trail, Sukkerbusk, North Loup (track set on side), connector to the west trails, start of Island Lake trail and return of Wavy Gravy trail. Also combed out the Section Skate course for the Section 8 Nordic Ski Championships on Tuesday, February 4th. The trails will be open on the 4th for day skiers. Recommended to park in far lot and use Loon Return to access the west trails and northern trails. Trails used for the Section races include a short section of Sukkebusk, JibFly and most of Mother North Star (opposite direction) and Sap Run for classic. Skaters Waltz for the skate race.
Groomer’s Picks for Saturday: Bullhead Bootleg, North Loup classic track, Rootin Tootin, Roy’s Run and Twin Lakes. All skate trails should ski nice.
Classic only skiing on trails with machine set tracks: Sukkerbusk, Sap Run, JibFly, Mother Hen, Rootin Tootin, Mother North Star and Loon Return. Roys Run, Twin Lakes, Wavy Gravy and Island Lake. Lucky’s Loype and double green not groomed, skier made track. Watch for branches etc. on AMA land.
Skating on Skater Waltz, the extension of Skater Waltz, Single Green climb, Kristin’s Kutoff, Eira Bikwadinaa hill and North Loup. Please do not skate on trails outside of the designated skate trails. Thank you!
