Pilot Knob lake

 On the west end of Pilot Knob lake,  I have a small 1/2 kilometer loop packed down for skiing. It's not great but it's still skiable (mostly for skate style). The ice is about 4 inches thick or more. Once it gets at least five inches thick I can use the snowmobile to pull the equipment and we can have a bigger loop. Until then this is all done human powered. 

There is not enough snow on the road or golf course for any decent skiing.

Pilot Knob

I groomed both the road and the lake tonight for skate skiing.  The pack was too hard to set classic tracks. This should be good through at least Saturday morning.

The road and lake in Pilot Knob were groomed for both classic and skate skiing early Saturday morning
The park has great protection from the wind and should be the place to ski todsy!

Pilot Knob state park

I rejuvenated the skate deck tonight on Pilot Knob Lake, leaving the classic tracks alone because I didn't think these could have been improved upon with limited depth.

The road was groomed for both classic and skate skiing.

Pilot Knob lake

I was able to groom a skating deck this morning on Pilot Knob Lake. I was not able to put in new classic tracks because it is too hard and icy.
