Classic tracks fresh groomed. Great shape. Blue extra multiple layer great kick. Track not icy so enjoyed 10k ski. Service road to bittersweet then widow to main. Loop 2x. Return thru roller coaster. Skate deck looked great also.

Natural snow packed firm and groomed to perfection! Not icy, just soft white gliding snow! Even west facing Waterfall! No bare spots except in the tracks down Frog Pond, so the Glorious Groomer reset a second clean white track. We did not do any steep downhillls from Bittersweet. 20 degrees, sun shining!

After skiing the trails and finding the skate deck to be soft and slow, I tilled the skate deck and reset tracks on the 1.6 km snowmaking loop with the Pistenbully. Also, tilled and reset tracks up the service road. On the Bittersweet Loop at the top of Mt Itasca, I only tilled the skate lane. The trails should be good in all areas now.Sun-exposed areas without man-made snow are a bit thin, so watch out in the following areas: Exit Ramp (last downhill part by the tubing hill), Mag View entrance (by Black Widow), the downhill immediately before the Wall, east Horseshoe, and Swamp Loop before the sharp curve.Otherwise, conditions should be great! Enjoy the snow and March daylight!
