Plenty of snow, though highly packed in some places. Prairie trail seemed groomed fairly recently. Woodland trail had been groomed longer ago but was fine for an enjoyable ski.

CXC and PV trails are the best they've been so far this year! Awesome glide! Amazing how much glide you get when its 28F vs 0F..A tad windy causing some drifting in spots. Could really cruise on the southern flat portion of the golf course!

Molly the Groomer did an exceptionally great job of laying fresh corduroy for a fast, silky smooth, silent ski. I skated all the loops (concentrically) in just over an hour. Classic tracks looked good, too. Simply the BEST!

Was out about 11:00am and grooming was going on at the time. Thanks!!!! With the warmer temps and fresh grooming, today was really fun. So nice not to have to wear 8 layers of clothing. As noted, there was some debris, most of which was coming up from the parking lot. Windy by the ball …

Very windy out there today. 50% of the track in Pleasant View was filled with drifting snow. Even the skating lane looked quite soft and had a lot of drifted snow.

All trails groomed at tracked and in excellent condition. Skate skiing is allowing in the campground and picnic area only. ~ Enjoy

Went out to Cherokee on 1/19 only to find no classic tracks were set and I couldn't tell if the entire trail was rolled or not. A section off the road to get to the boat launch was not rolled, but perhaps further back it was. It would be nice if the groomers leave a …

Skied Token on Friday night. Went to Cherokee and didn't see tracks, so headed back to Token. There's some blown over area and minor places where walking happened, but compared to the past at Token seems like a lot less walking happening. Perhaps the cold weather kept them away. The weekend may see more traffic …

Very firm/icy in most spots – wooded trails a bit better but lots of small debris on trail. Mostly avoidable but a few hard to traverse sections. A few other early birds out there trying to pack it in before the ice/rain!
