Skate was not groomed. Bummer because it would have been fast. Some sticks/debris. Classic looked fast and was groomed.

A few spots could use more snow base, but overall smooth sailing -10F, -20WC. Bird activity was minimal, but the frost whiskers got long. A refreshing Saturday morning!

Today trails were groomed and tracks were set. The lights are on so go enjoy the Blackwater/MN Power trails!
