| Fair | 2013-01-11 | We have closed the access road as it is softening. We have a good base but it would recommend not skiing here this weekend to protect it until the cold weather returns. | Bill Rogers | |
| Good | 2013-01-08 | 9k | Good cover , holding off on regrooming until it gets cold again but base is well packed with 1-2" fluff on top | Bill |
| Good | 2013-01-02 | 9k | All 9k groomed, no track, good cover with some bumps, skating should be ideal today | Bill Rogers |
| Fair | 2012-12-29 | Looks like it was rolled on Friday--decent skiing but only one pass by the snowmobile so a pretty narrow track, and quit thin cover. Classic would be better than skating, though there's no track. | Nat H | |
| Good | 2012-03-04 | 8 | Trails regroomed this AM. Soft but good cover and flat. With colds temps tomorrow, grooming should improve conditions substantially. | Bill Rogers |
| Fair | 2012-02-16 | 7 | trails in the woods remain covered but bare spots under the powerline are getting bigger - B loop beyond the K4 post is not skiable - use the B loop extension and logging road to the waterline | Bill Rogers |
| Fair | 2012-02-10 | 7 | Considering lack of new snow for three weeks and warm temps, skiing was surprising good. Bare spots showing on the powerline but in the woods there is good cover. The north face trail and logging road are very good. Groomed Thur so trails are fairly flat. | Bill Rogers |
| Good | 2012-02-03 | 8 | All trails groomed Friday Decent cover except for the return climb of the B loop extension. | Bill Rogers |
| Fair | 2012-01-29 | 8k | I'm being hard on my groomer as he did a wonderful job given the little snow and amt of rain we received. Frozen granular now in the wet spots and a few areas of thin cover but good skate conditions today. No track until we get more snow. | Bill Rogers |
| Poor | 2012-01-27 | Wet snow and warm temps - no grooming yet. Will reevaluate tomorrow am. | Bill Rogers | |
| Fair | 2012-01-24 | Yes | Slushy with some puddles. There was still a track around the entire 5km loop. Great job by the groomers doing a lot with not much. Snow coverage is getting thin though. | Tracey Cote |
| Poor | 2012-01-24 | The warm temps deteriorated trails further and freeze will make for tough skiing. We will try to preserve the base until the next snow. | Bill Rogers | |
| Good | 2012-01-23 | I classic skied this pm - soft but good cover and an excellent track set on the 5k loop. All 7.5k groomed including the new north face trail and the logging road. I will be out there tomorrow as well to look at the trail conditions after the rain. | Bill Rogers | |
| Good | 2012-01-21 | 8 | What nice trails! Conditions were good—there was a fine base and new snow on top of it, but a few sections with dirt and a couple of rocks and roots precluded the use of the best skis. The corkscrew section in the last k of the trail is tricky, but fun! The best access to these trails is via the cemetary; there's a parking lot at the end of the main entrance road, then a long hill down to the trails..JPG) | Ari Ofsevit, skitrailreport.com |
