Skied 2 laps of golf course on fresh gator groomed trails early and manmade snow loops -Small amount of groomed snow on solid base. First lap was ice crystal type snow-2nd lap quickly turned to mushy type-amazing how quickly texture changed. Still mostly good coverage but probably wont last long with warmer temps. Thank you …

Blue Mound SP

Skated the flat loop at the top of the mound starting at 7:15 this morning. Expectedly crusty, but honestly in good shape considering it hasn't been groomed in at least 10 days. The base is quite deep, at least 6". There are some deep footprints you'll have to be careful around, and it looked like …

Lapham Peak – Delafield

Made the trip east after reading on skinnyski that LP had been groomed by a PB. Arrived to mashed potato-like snow on the entire snowmaking loop (3-6 inches deep). Meadow trail with one bare spot and several very thin areas, but still skiable today. Snowmaking loop will be nice once frozen and re-groomed. Don’t waste …

Odana Golf Course

Ungroomed trail consisting of solid base with soft uneven skate deck. Most tracks still in tack. Holding up well under warm temps. Still on average 4" of base. Plenty of snow to groom yet. Would have rated a good or higher if groomed.

I’m guessing the previous poster was out earlier than I was. Snow making loop in good shape. A few soft pole plants, but not a big deal. The inner loop at Pleasant View had been groomed by the time I was there about 10:00 am. A few bare spots but really quite nice. As previously …

The CXC snowmaking loop and field were groomed with the snowmobile this morning and are good! The snow-making loop is great, and the field is mostly good, but extremely thin–not sure how much longer it will survive. Pleasant View was UNGROOMED and an icy, rutted mess in the early morning. I'm guessing the groomer is …

Odana Golf Course

Still pretty skiable thanks to earlier grooming. With overnight temps below freezing it could be a lot of fun tomorrow morning. Get it while you can.

Regarding the tire tracks, I witnessed the Pleasant View employee drive the machine across the ski trail. I don't know why he was driving this machine across the golf course. It's a huge mess on the ski trail where the machine cut through. It's on the far side of the golf course where there are …

Blue Mound SP

Encouraged by recent reports, I decided to give BMSP another shot this evening. I stuck to the campground and pool trail, and honestly the tracks were in excellent shape. I almost couldn’t believe it. There are a couple of spots with leaf debris, and it is still quite soft (especially pole plants), but for the …

Skied early morning-did a couple laps on the golf coarse-varied conditions similar to yesterday's post. watch out for ruts created by some "Einstein" who decided to go off roading on the golf course with his monster truck. snow became very soft by the time I left. More and more bare spots popping up.
