CXC Trails

Well it is getting a bit tough to ski … nothing dangerous yet but it is getting icy and ungranular. I did ski a few loops and there was some soft snow but it didn't really soften too much without the sun. I skied at about 4 pm when it was close to 50 degrees. …

Blue Mound SP

Most of the upper Mound is snow covered and skiable when soft. 6 inch base on much of the trail. Yep.

CXC Trails

Skied today around 4 pm. It was wonderful. Soft spring snow. Tee shirt weather. No one else skiing when I was there but there were tracks so someone else also enjoyed the first day of spring on the snow. Snow will certainly be fine tomorrow … and then rain comes in and who knows what …

BlackHawk Ski Area

Fresh grooming today. A lot of snow. Great conditions at noon. No classic track.

Took an early morning drive to checkout Ariens Nordic Center Brillion WI(East of Appleton)- arrived at 8am to perfectly groomed trails- skate deck was awesome! Perfect winter like conditions!

BlackHawk Ski Area

Siberian Hwy is a complete ice rink with corduroy grooves. Lots of ice chunks too. The coverage is still good. Horrible grooming for today. They have the equipment to make that loop so much better-extremely disappointing.

CXC Trails

Quite skiable, but very noticeably degraded since my last report. Sugary conditions. Couple of lightly iced spots. But good edging and control available on the loop. The end is sadly near. If you need one last go, this and probably tomorrow are very likely your last chances. ¡Adios amigos!

BlackHawk Ski Area

Lots of snow. Corduroy skate lanes and hills. The small Pisten Bully was out setting a nice looking track 5pm.

Elver Park

I skied about 4.5 miles, it was not good as reported there were long lengths of bare ground in the tracks. Everything was glazed over with ice so I had frequent times of near uncontrolled speed in deep tracks and stepping out was hazardous as the deck was rutted and frozen. My reason for the …
