Nordic skiers are getting surly, awaiting snow which did not come early. We received 4 inches on Friday night, so we’ve packed down about 5K with a snowmobile. No tracksetting, but striding is recommended over skating. Warmish temps today mean there will be numerous thin spots; use caution. No charge to ski.
Snow Depth in Woods: 4
Packed Snow Depth on Trails: 2
Ice, Glaze, Barespots: yes
