Completed at 1000. Groomed for classic and skate.Mar 18, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Leaving the house shortly to groom. Hope to be done by 11. FYI even with the fresh snow on it yesterday the classic skiing was amazing at 5pm. So it is an excellent post work destination.Mar 17, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Road groomed and classic track reset. Most completed after whiteout so still in good shape. Classic track starts at rock quarry because I had hard time turning around at P. lot. Parking lot not plowed so best to park on main road. It’s been plowed this...Mar 16, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
…oomed! Well the expected 3 hrs turned into 5 as the snow was challenging to compact – especially at times it was snowing so hard I could not see the side of the trail. It finally let up and I made 4 more passes laying some sweet corduroy and a classic...Mar 16, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Grooming to start at 1030. Probably finished in 3 hours.Mar 14, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Machine is back in operation – finished grooming at 8pm for Skate and Classic. If it sets up tonight and doesn’t snow it is going to be amazing Sunday. If it snows and has to be regroomed – it will also be amazing.Mar 13, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
No grooming today and probably tomorrow too. Having issues with machine quitting which makes for a long walk when it happens at the end of the road. So to keep that from happening the machine is in my shop thawing out so I can chase the electrical gremlin tomorrow....Mar 12, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Attempted grooming today but machine still acting up. Classic track is still in excellent condition from yesterday. Keep you posted on progress.Mar 12, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Headed out to groom shortly after 1000. Hoping to resolve the machine issues. Even if we are unable to groom the classic track is amazing and the skate lane is decent.Mar 11, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Having machine issues. Groomed out to second rock pit. Excellent skiing.Mar 10, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Groomed for skate and classic. Skate track looks most excellent

Spent a few hours track packing and rolling the delightful bounty of snow. By that point I was soaked to the bone, so no chance for ginzo and XC track. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so I’ll let the corduroy and ski tracks tell the...Mar 8, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
The trail has firmed up smooth. Firming is plenty deep for skiing and laying corduroy, but not for using the ginzo. Accordingly, I played corduroy to the second culvert. There is still water there, so will wait until tomorrow to go further. Skiing all the wait out is...Mar 7, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Groomed for skate and classic. Track is starting to firm up. It should be excellent after tomorrows groom. Running tip of the day – Don’t run down the middle of the soft and freshly groomed ski trailMar 7, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Grooming Situation – did not groom on Friday as the snow was too saturated. I’m going to head out shortly and check the track to see if it is groomable.Mar 5, 2026 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
After a mechanical issue was resolved the P Rd was groomed for classic and skate. The low humidity powder from last week is hydrating and packing down. It is still a soft and tender surface. Skaters do the Ali please – as in Float Like A Butterfly – if you...
