Blue Mound SP

Skied the outer perimeter trails backwards around noon and it was getting really slushy. Suprisingly good coverage, but the hikers and dog walkers are out, so that won't last for long. I took a shortcut to avoid the icy/slushy mess.

Door Creek Park

Most of the classic tracks were mud. A few areas available for skate, lots of grass to dodge. Terrible signage.

CXC Outdoor Rec Center

cxc loop was excellent for skating -firm base with good groom on top-no bare spots. Tried the golf coarse but too many bare spots for the skis I was using so I bailed.

Mirror Lake SP – Baraboo

Did Ishnala which was packed and tracked. Had a good time, but the tracks were degraded with multiple brown spots and some leaf litter. The skate/packed areas though were mostly pretty mangable.

University Ridge Golf Course

The deck is holding on but there are a number of thin and exposed areas. All area can be avoided but skiers should still use caution as things warm up. We groomed the skate deck but left the tracks alone this morning. Please check in with the golf shop. Only open until 3pm today.

CXC Outdoor Rec Center

Elver Park

Since Friday, more grass is emerging from CL tracks but there are still stretches of very good track and the edge of the packed skate lane provides ski-around room in those grassy stretches, and good grip …

University Ridge Golf Course

Still good skating on Zimmer and Toms as of noon today. Just a couple thin/dirty spots but most of trail was good to excellent. Arthur’s a bit thin getting down to Zimmer, but still very navigable. Didn’t see any more exposed gravel after the first 150ft. Thanks URidge for these last grooms and reports
