FROM Friends of Valley Spur Skied W this a.m. and things were very good. Used skins, and getting glide on the left of the trail. Get there early. I was able to get in upper parking lot. A lot of base left. Tried to ski B, but not much glide...
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing What a way to end the season today! The “loop” groomed up perfect this morning for skating and classic after some additional snow yesterday and below freezing temps overnight. The flags have been lowered and put away, hopefully to be raised in November to start the 23/24 Season. Stay tuned. We will update periodically on what’s happening at the Corner during the off season.

FROM Friends of Valley Spur Friday April 7th, received a smidge of new snow. Both tracks and skate lanes have firmed up. Unless you have towing, stay out of the upper lot.
FROM Friends of Valley Spur I was able to roll A and B, so people are skiing on those this a.m. Temps right at 32F so people are skiing on those enjoying the scenery along the creek.
FROM Friends of Valley Spur Several inches of wet snow overnight and light snow falling. The scenery is great so if you can make it out a ski around B would be worth it. No-wax or skins may work. With temps at or above freezing grooming equipment easily plugs up...

FROM Friends of Valley Spur Things turned out great today. Skate lanes were firm, but easy to get an edge. Yesterday’s snow had filled the older classic tracks making things slower. People kept showing up all day. Depending on temps in a.m. we will redo some of the skate lanes. Our Jeeps are down for major maintenance. John C or groomer has performed miracles to get them through this winter. Keep an eye on the weather and posts here.
FROM Cross Country Ski Headquarters Good morning! ❄️ Conditions today on March 26th are better than any day we had in January. All trails have classic track set and snowcombed skating lanes. Come ski it to believe it! Warm up by the fire with a hot toddy afterwards, and enjoy a panini at the Stone Turtle Café, which is open until the end of this month. And in case you already put your skis away, the rental desk is open!
