Explored EB with the skate skis and found about 80% manageable skate skiing, 10% water skiing, and 10% ice skating. Classic skiing would yield a higher percentage of water skiing. Come get what little remains while you can because it doesn’t seem like it will...

EB groomed by 3:30

A bit slushy/icy in places along the River, but nicer throughout the woods. Flattened out the skate lanes. Started to set new classic but it made it worse. Warm out there.

Groomed for Skate

Campground groomed for skate, really nice. I tried to set a new classic track, which was a mistake. Snow too shallow and dry, so the new track came out…shallow with low sides and uneven base, very poor. Lake being groomed for skate now. BF
