Fun enough — squishy intact tracks with decent glide and adequate kick on the skins. Fishscales also would have worked. Skating looked pretty messy and one guy was leaving deep tracks out there. But plenty of snow left and it could be good if we eventually get an overnight freeze and city can groom out …
Good coverage (still 4in or more packed deck), bad pole plants, somehow even more tree debris? If you classic, you'll be happier on the skate deck. West side firmer than east side. Bring yer klister and expect your legs to do most of the propulsion.
Skied ferndell turtleville hastings pioneer hastings ishnala. Good coverage-recently groomed-lots of twiggs and leave debris on trails. Overall very skiable considering warm temps(35F) but really soft and slow. Every plant; skis and polos sink in a tad.

Skier made tracks on soft, wet snow but the trails are beautiful, worth doing
Classic skiing was excellent- maybe not the fastest glide but great kick with skin skis and fun to ski in fresh snow and mild temps. Skated for bit before that but the snow was wet and slow.

Most of it was tracked for classic. Only part that wasn't was on the side with the sledding hill along the trail that takes you to the steep uphill. Snow cover on a lot of the track at the top where it is open plain and quite a bit of leaves in other parts. Other …
