County packed only part of the system, no new track setting due to warm temps.

Inch of fresh snow in the still evident tracks frozen from the rain. Very enjoyable ski with wolf tracks and deer bones along the beginner and intermediate loops. Icy bumps under short stretch of pines that finally dropped snow chunks from mid December. NO grooming needed until more snow. Blue wax worked great at 10 degrees. Nice hardwoods interspersed with new popple growth from logging done over the years.

The four loops were groomed and tracked on Friday and are in excellent condition. The trails are fairly fast, but there are a few leaves on the trail.
