Thanks so much to the groomers! It's wonderful to be back skiing at Elver. I recommend rock skis, there's a lot of sticks coming through the snow and other debris in some areas. Other areas are nearly perfect. Worth getting out before next week's probable rain.
Corduroy was nice and fast, no classic track yet and a few sticks, but great early skiing. Much better than my basement norditrack.
We groomed mid-day. No tracks set. Drifting in some open areas. Soft, but ok coverage in most areas. Thin across marsh and in drifting areas. 60/40 good/fair.
Skied just before groomer started to groom at 12:00. Hill by farm was great and teails around little and big woods good. Trails in big open fields were drifzed over partially. Trails near woods by parking lot were good except the top return part. I bet the grooming will hrlp. Some grass in open field …
Full coverage, not bare spots and rolled. Only debris on the way down to the campground. No tracks but could use A skis. Get out while it lasts.
Staff has rolled the trails, thin of course but it's a start. After freezing tonight it could be fun. No tracks.
Brain T groomed west trails and I(Dick) groomed east trails skate only. not enough for tracks. thin base, use B ski's, both up hill climb on east trails out from the shelter are not groomed because of maintenance work in that area.
Good grooming. Fresh snow is quite soft, but will set up nicely as the day continues and moves into the Winter Celebration weekend here starting tomorrow. All trails open. A bit thin in spots. But nothing serious. Best skiing of the season so far. Ullr is casting good cheer upon us!
Groomed Morningside, Red Hawk and Oak Savanna Trails. The Woodland trail was unable to be groomed at this time. Not enough snow to lay down any classic track. The surface is thin and delicate, but lots of people out skiing!
Groomed golf course trails for skating. Fair conditions overall for the first snowfall—soft in most places with some snow drifts. Use rock skis or B-skis when skiing off the snowmaking loop. The deck should firm up today after a cold night.
