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. But I suspect this trail won't last for long with the warm weather forecasted. Saw a bunch of skiiers on Pioneer Trail which …
This is the bad as good as it’ll get this year. Well, set tracks soft grippy, snow, a few bare spots here and there. If you haven’t gotten out today, do it now before it warms up!
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.
I groomed the long loops on the golf course and CXC loops this morning for skating. This is probably the last day grooming the golf course.
Good to Fair. Temp Saturday stayed below freezing, so Sunday morning should still offer what could be end-of-season skiing. 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 …
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
Lots of new trails this year, good work by parks. Classic tracks are bare in spots, did most skiing on the deck. Some great spots in the open, lots of bare spots in the woods and spotty grass poking through elsewhere. Any other year this would be a bad day, but was able to get …
Thanks Dale! The skiing was fabulous. Very much appreciate the excellent grooming. Both cvlassic and skate.
Ok, I’m sure “excellent” caught your attention! Thank you McCarthy Grooming Team (Paul especially). There was plenty of excellent skiing because of stellar grooming. Some pieces of dirt, grass, a rock or two, but it’s all still avoidable. There were no sledders and skiing up the sledding hill had great coverage. Get it while it …
I went about 8:30 this morning. Someone recently groomed about half of Odana. The recently groomed sections were excellent, but the sections which had not been groomed were only ok. Some dirt, but easily avoided.
