Went out mid afternoon for a recovery ski when things had warmed up....conditions were very fast and most enjoyable for skate skiing. There had been earlier grooming on Fortune parkway, Ridge (#1), 1b, and on #2. There was a light ocvering of yesterday's snow on a hard base.

Of course, by this time of the day, there are ruts to factor in especially on the Parkway and as evening falls in the flat light.
One problem to note...at the early part of the uphill just past Shilly Shally on the way to Huron (we senior folk know it as Khyber Pass), a sharp wooden spike about two inches long stuck out of the snow right in the middle of the trail...I could not remove it. Caution advised!
