Groomed skate/classic at 7am this morning (Thursday). Should ski ok, but the conditions are soft. It will get messy quick.
Montana Creek – hole in middle of trail on first hill
Looks like Montana Creek was groomed for skate and classic today. There is a hole in the middle of the trail near the bottom of the first hill and it goes down to the pavement. Beware! I am going to go out tomorrow morning with a shovel to fill it in. Otherwise conditions are fine. Snow is wet and dirty in spots but very skiable.
Campground groomed and in good condition
Scott groomed the Mendenhall Campground and the new side trail on the other side of the road for skate and classic. He reports the snow groomed out perfectly and despite the wet weather it is good skiing.
New km signs up on Montana Creek
Del Carnes and I posted brand spanking new kilometer signs on the Montana Creek trail today. The trail is great for skate or classic and doesn’t seem to have suffered at all from the warmer weather.

The campground was groomed for skate and classic this afternoon. Classic tracks looked great, and the sun came out. Methodist Camp loop is skier tracked.

Groomed Montana Creek at 0630 this morning. The edges of the classic track are a little soft, but should improve with settling and grooming tomorrow.
Good base, nice grooming today.
Nice skate and classic tracks today. And the humidity has finally settled the base so its not as churned up by paws and feet.
