Grooming on hold until temps cool and/or we get more snow at sea levelFeb 20, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Well is is groomed. A bit challenging with the roller trying to turn into the worlds largest snowman and the ginzu getting jammed with sticky snow. However the classic skiing looks good for no wax and the skating should be fast if you are light on your feet. Highway...Feb 20, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Yesterdays wx event was not good for skiing on the P Rd. I’m going to head out this morning and see if the water drained away enough and this new snow helped the snow cover. Expect to be done grooming by 11 and will repost when I get home.Feb 19, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Did not groom as snow cover too thin and soft. Additionally the high winds have the trees whipping and loosing branches. Strongly recommend staying off the road until the WX abates.Feb 18, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Classic was set, and skate surface groomed this morning. Conditions are: colder, icy snow in the morning, changing to corn and wetter conditions as temps warm in the afternoon.

I love sticks – HOWEVER – IB does not like them left on the trail. When you are done with your stick please return it to the woods or make your human companion do it. Rocks – there are a few rocks showing occasionally at the temporary Blust Bridge....Feb 18, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Randy and I are headed out to start grooming at 9. Expect to be done by 12 or earlier. With the changing wx forecast not sure what we are going to get over the next few days. Not sure if it will get to soft to groom over the weekend. It was good skiing...Feb 17, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road

New Groomer Stuart set a really nice skate and classic trackFeb 15, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Grooming completed at 1200. New groomer Stuart was trained in today and he did a nice job. Skate lane looks fun. The classic track was not reset – it is still in good shape and the report is it is fast.Feb 14, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road

I’m learning another new skill – “shoulder” – running on the side of the trail. Also, Island Boy says the skating is rocket...Feb 13, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Classic track is firm and fast. The wind has ceased for the time being. The skating lane was reset after heavy use on Saturday. Bring your honey out for a date.

It is a great day to take your four legged friend on a ski. One thing I have been learning from IB is to poop in the woods. If I make a mistake I make sure IB removes it from the ski trail. No one likes dog poop on the trail – even me. IB gets really cranky when...Feb 13, 2021 | N. Douglas Pioneer Road
Reset skate lane. Classic reset yesterday and still in excellent shape. Suggest bringing a snack and have a picnic at the end of the road. ATTN Skate Skiers: There is a 10′ wide skate lane for you, please do not skate across the 2′ wide classic track on...
