Saturday morning grooming

 We had about 3/4 of an inch of new snow from this week. I groomed the road this morning which should be fairly good for skating. It's still much to thin to add classic tracks.

And I groomed some corduroy into an even thinner layer of snow on the lake.

These conditions would be pretty good for November. It's not so great for January.

 The road has been rolled this morning and groomed this afternoon for skate skiing. It's too thin to set tracks.  The lake shockingly still had too much slush under the snow to groom.

Snow storm?

 With Tuesday's snow and tonight's snow we only have a little under 3 inches on the ground. I'd like to have a little more before running the sled on the asphalt road. And the lake's ice is too thin for grooming equipment.  Hopefully with more snow Friday and some really cold temps to follow, I can groom both places.

I was able to enjoy some ungroomed skiing on the lake tonight. 

Brown December

There's nothing to ski on here this holiday season. I skied on the lake a couple of times back in November but nothing since then. Hoping for winter weather soon.

Last day of Winter

 The skate skiing was great yesterday even though only the south half of the lake was skiable. Today is probably the last day for skiing on groomed trail at the knob.

Last weekend

 Well this has to be it for the season. All I could do was groom a skating path on the south side of the lake. The road is no good. Skating should be good today and tomorrow.

The skating path is just under a half mile long so you'll have to ski it back and forth. Not very long but it will be enough for a last skiing fix of the season. 

No grooming

 I am out of town so will be unable to groom any trails for the weekend.
