The snowmaking loop has been groomed for both skating and classic skiing. We decided not to groom the trails on the golf course. While there are some sections with great snow coverage, accessing those areas would bring up too much debris by the grooming equipment. We will finish snowmaking this morning. We have been able …
Opening Day with very good conditions- especially classical. Golf course Loops are 3.3k with tracks. Field loops are groomed for skating- rock skis. Groomed again tonight. Next grooming will be Monday 1/23 am.
Skied golf course. 50% good, 40% grass/leaves, 10% exposed cart path/gravel/cautions. Some sections were excellent. If you watch for cautions, fun to be had
Surorisingly good given the 7-ish" of snow. Recommend B-skis to be on the safe side, but good coverage. Only a few thin spots or grass/brush poking through on the outer loop (coming into, and out of, campground primarily).
Park has groomed Hastings, Fern Dell and Turtleville for skate, but not classic. No other trails are groomed. Skied Hastings which was a nice experience…but the edges were a bit leafy and brushy in spots. Not a huge deal and still in good shape…but we really needed more snow. Hastings and Turtleville are likely in …
The club is snowmaking along a significant portion of Siberian Hwy. Fair for classic, looked great for skate. One set of tracks on part of the Hwy, but it’s good!
East and west trails refreshed this morning. “B” skis recommended with thin coverage and some debris.

The golf course trails have been groomed for skating only, with a mix of very thin spots and some great stretches. Snowmaking is currently underway on the Upper Field Trail. The Middleton Nordic Opener is happening today! Join us to celebrate …
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.
