Trails are open. Very good to excellent mid winter conditions. Great weekend of skiing. A very snowy week with 5″ of new snow Friday and Saturday. Snow globe conditions Friday and Saturday with lovely skiing in the fresh snow. Sunday mild but not nearly warm enough to alter the snow. All the trails groomed 1-3 times Friday-Sunday. Lots of wildlife in recent days including a barred owl sighting at end of Loon Return and Roy’s Run on Saturday near the end of the trail.
Groomer’s Picks for Monday: Bullhead Bootleg, (tracks might be filled in on lake) Roy’s Run, Rooting Tootin, Mother North Star an Twin Lakes. Skaters Waltz will be a bit soft but best trail for skating.
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.
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!
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.
