Ski Trail Report

Trails open. Warmer day on tap after a winter wonderland day Saturday.

Good early season conditions. We have groomed on the entire trail system after 4″ of total new snow since Thursday morning. Trails are open for day skiing for non lodging guests.

Grooming update: Skate trails combed this morning. Select classic trails groomed as well. New snow will be skied in on other classic trails and make for very nice classic skiing. Classic trails holding good from, best tracks found on Roy’s Run, Sap Run, and JibFly.

Classic skiing on Sukkerbusk, Sap Run, Mother Hen, JibFly, Rootin Tootin, Twin Lakes, Mother North Star, Wavy Gravy, Island Lake trail and Roy’s Run. Please no skating on the classic trails. Crossing between Twin Lakes is still rough. Take skis off to get through or possible to make a fun loop by using both Island and Wavy trails (and Twin). Bullhead/Bootleg has been packed and combed on the Bootleg extension and return. Lucky’s Loype is adventure skiing, no grooming on the AMA segments.

Skaters Waltz, the extension loops, North Loup, Suicide Hill, Single Green and Kristin’s Kutoff designated trails for skating.

All trails are one way except Sukkerbusk and Skaters Waltz. Skiing correct direction, especially in early season, helps us maintain the integrity of the base. Thank you!
