Trails are open. Good to excellent conditions. Another beautiful day on Friday. Temps in the 20’s, sunshine and light winds. The cooler temps keeping the snow snappy, a few glazed areas to watch out for but overall nice skiing. Late afternoon and early evening grooming on Bullhead Lake and Bootleg extension trail, Sukkerbusk, North Loup with new track set, the connector to the west trails and also the 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. There is good snow and base to work with and the trails groomed out well.
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.

We have been grooming and skiing since November 20th and have only missed four days of grooming since that first snowfall we skied on after grooming.
5″ new snowfall past 48 hours. 10″ new snow past 12 days. 29″ of snowfall this season, compacted base on trail 4-7″. Snow depth in woods 6-14″
Season and day passes can be purchased here. A purchase of a season pass helps us maintain the trails year round and provide the best skiing possible even in low snow year. Thank you!

Trails are open. A spectacular day on the trails. Morning low checking in at 11 degree and no wind to speak of, the woods held the cold longer and the snow in good shape. Just a few direct south facing slopes melted and glazed over again at dusk. Late afternoon and early evening we groomed the course for the Section 8 Nordic Ski Championships on Tuesday, February 4th.
Grooming Wednesday on JibFly, Mother North Star, Sap Run and Sukkerbusk. Along with Roy’s Run and Rootin Tootin, these are the recommended trails to ski Friday. Rest of the trails in good shape, might be a few glazed spots here and there. We will plan to groom a few more classic trails on Friday.
There is a great base of snow to work with and we continue to groom daily on some portion of the trail system for fresh skiing each day.
Groomer’s Picks for Friday: Sap Run, Sukkerbusk, JibFly, Mother North Star, Rootin Tootin, and Roys’s Run for classic. 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 the first and last part of Island Lake trail now tracked as well. Mac’s Mess in between Twin Lakes is not groomed but skier made track and passable. Might have to take skis off for just a little bit. North Loup has a track on the side and a skate path. The crossing on the north end of Bullhead lake trail is a bit rough. Take skis off and walk for the adventure! Lucky’s Loype and double green not groomed, skier made track. Watch for branches etc. on AMA land.
