Wed J31, '24. Fairgrounds trails were groomed this morning. Still need more snow and cold weather (yes I like winter) to improve conditions. But you can ski it so I suggest you get out there and do that. No classic tracks yet as the snow cover is still not deep enough for that. Enjoy the day.

Tue J30, '24. Plans Change. Temps did NOT get cold enough overnight to freeze up the new snow at the Fairgrounds. Its just too wet. So our packing and grooming efforts are postponed until tomorrow morning. Please stay OFF the trails/snow in the meantime. This includes skiers, snowshoers, walkers and dogs. And as I'm sure most of you know, though we love walkers and dogs in general, we do not welcome them on our groomed trails. Snowshoers are welcome to visit but please do your snowshoeing adjacent to - not ON - the groomed trails. Thank you for sharing that message. /groomer sasquatch/
We got some snow. We're excited about that. But its very wet snow and with the temps hovering at or above freezing all day our best approach is to let this new snow sit today. It will dry out and freeze up overnight tonight as the temps drop down to 20F. Tuesday AM we'll get out to pack it and prep it. And in the afternoon we'll groom it (temps still below freezing - that's the important part) to get it ready for Blackwater Nordic skiers and everyone else. That's the plan for today. Check back tomorrow for updates. Have a great Monday.
