Pilot Knob Lake

Pilot Knob Lake has been groomed for both skate and classic style skiing this morning after receiving another 3" of snow last night.

Two inches of snow

Pilot Knob lake has been groomed this morning for both skate and classic skiing after receiving a heavy 2" of snow last night.

Scratched the lake

I scratched up the icy snow on Pilot Knob Lake this morning.  It should be OK for skating.  The old classic tracks are filled in and pretty much solid ice, so there is nothing that could be done there.

It was a great morning to get out and ski the Knob!

Fresh Grooming

Pilot Knob lake has been groomed for both classic skiing and skate skiing this morning.  We received over an inch of snow yesterday which was enough to cut a new classic track.  Enjoy it early today before the big melt down this afternoon!

Fresh snow

Friday was a great sunny day to be out skiing.

Pilot Knob Lake

I rejuvenated the skate lane on Pilot Knob Lake this morning.  The classic tracks look to be rock hard with a little bit of snow blown in.

Pilot Knob

Pilot Knob lake was in great shape for skiing this weekend.  Boy scout troop 418 from Forest City had their annual winter campout in the park and all of the boys tried some classic and skate skiing.  We even set up a Nerf gun biathlon competition in honor of the winter Olympics happening.

Both the road and lake have been groomed this morning. The lake should be excellent for both skating and classic skiing today.  The road should be good for skating but poor for classic skiing since it wasn't consistently deep enough to set a full depth track. 

Rolling new snow

We received at least 3" of good snow (not light & fluffy) last night.  That is on top of the other snows we received throughout this week.  I was able to pack with the roller out at Pilot Knob on the road and the lake this morning.  With some more work with the Ginzu, my goal is to have skiable trails by Saturday.

About 5" of snow depth from this week's snows.
