Fairgrounds Trails Closed due to warm temps and rain. Please no skiing on the soft snow. Looks like cold temps return Friday night. So we'll evaluate on Saturday and see if we can return to skiable conditions. Send some positive energy to our Hopkinton Hawks Nordic Teams who are skiing in their State Championship meets up at Great Glen Trails at the base of Mt Washington today. GO HAWKS!!!!

Fairgrounds trails were groomed today. It took a lot of time and many trips around to slowly scratch down into the very very hard surface to create a loose granular skate lane surface. Also time and effort to scratch out the old frozen classic tracks and set some new ones was accomplished. Overall things are in very good shape at the moment. We recommend you get out there to ski today and/or tomorrow. We'll close the trails Wed as temps climb and rain returns. And hope that the snow holds until the cold returns and we can regroom again. Its spring conditions and we're hopeful we can continue to provide some okay skiing for a while longer.

Well.....we tried to groom the Fairgrounds this AM but had a snowmobile problem. So no grooming happened. The snowmobile rescue squad can't mobilize until tomorrow AM. So if you go for a ski today you'll most certainly notice a snowmobile and groomer on the trail not too far from the Grooming Shed. Just ski around it for now. Trails are rough from skiers in soft snow. And there's a lot of "crunch" out there today. We'll get it smoothed out some tomorrow AM.  Then a period of warmth will close the trails for a few days with colder temps returning later in the week. IN the meantime enjoy this glorious sunny cold Sunday.
