Much better today. Tilled with a layer of sugar snow on the entire loop. Enjoyable skiing today. Thanks Blackhawk groomers.

The whole area is holding up well. A couple of small icy spots, but really not bad once you know where they are. Dirty in places. B skis for sure. Some fresh snow over the next few days will help loads. Tracks look o.k. Talked to a strider (Kraig) about them who was using skins …

Groomed for skating only. Classic tracks are about the same as yesterday.

No grooming magic today. Horrible. Entire loop is a complete ice rink with maybe 150 m of sugar snow total. Miserable skiing today! Since this is the most expensive ski club in WI with the shortest loop of snow-I expect better.

Groomed for skating and classic. It took a while to break up the ice. Conditions should be very fast—watch out for a few icy spots. Classic tracks are a little shallow.

Groomed for skating and classic around 6 am.

Groomed up nicely with the Gator. Redid most of the classic tracks but some looked a little shallow.

Started with the Gator this morning and had to switch to the Piston Bully. Did my best, reworked the classic tracks and groomed the skating.
