Open, 19º at 7 am, and partly cloudy. Forecast high 40º and partly sunny.

All trails open. Good spring skiing. The low trails were groomed last night. Great track and nice firm skate lane. Upper trails open and good skiing, Chickadee was groomed early Saturday morning. Middle and Upper Bluejay and Loon are a little more rustic.

The snow will soften in the middle of the day and will be slower. BUT, it will harden and speed up again when the sun goes down, about 3; this happens every spring and seems to surprise many people. So be smart and honest with yourself, and check the time before you go on the longer loops with the big downhill at the end

This is a fourth generation groomer in the making, and we have a few more coming along;

And another round of ski 25 km, every trail, with a fire pit party at the end;
