Snow is melting fast on south-facing areas, but trails elsewhere are doing okay. Because of the shallow snow and colder temperatures this year, frost is preventing meltwater from soaking into the ground, and the melt is running into and across the trails. On level ground and north-facing areas, this is not happening because there is not as much melting. Generally, spring conditions with slow, slushy snow. Ran across the trails a bit with the Pistenbully this afternoon to investigate a possible mechanical issue.

Quick ski, with primarily ice and debris on trails in Bemidji. Skate skiing attainable, however ice in several areas. Simply enjoy being on snow. Refreshing to be in nature.

The skiff of snow from last night was perfect for skate skiing on the upper trails in addition to groomed lower loops. Should be good skiing. Enjoy quick!
