All DRXC trails have been groomed for classic and skate skiing, with the exception of B and K loops. The ice pellets and freezing rain last night have left us with a granular snow that’s like ice sand. The track that was pressed into this “snow” might not hold, but it’s a good base for regrooming with the fresh snow that is supposed to come in a few days.
While the conditions for classic skiing are fair to good, the skate ski conditions are very good right now. Hopefully this snow will set properly.
All DRXC trails were groomed for skate and classic skiing this morning, with the exception of K loop under the power lines, where track setting was not done because of blowing snow. The fresh snow was not enough to restore good trail conditions, so the track is icey in places, but blowing the snow will help with that.
All DRXC trails have been groomed for classic and skate skiing. This includes King’s Road (King’s Trail) for those that are nervous about descending the hills on M and S. We were very fortunate to get the snow that we did, plus the overnight cool down. Enjoy!!
Thanks to 2 of our super keen groomers who headed out at 5 am this morning before their day jobs, loops M, S, H and B have been freshly groomed for skate and classic skiing … yes, B loop has a track set on it for you to enjoy during the SILVER SPOON ski week. The horseshoe extension off of H loop is also groomed for classic and skate.
Loops D, R, X, K and C remain in good condition from grooming done 2 days ago.
Please continue being cautious descending the hills on M, S, B and H loops because there is still minimal snow to soften a fall.
