Pretty good skiing given the minimal amount of snow we have at the moment. Snow was fast and glazing on top of day old grooming. The skate lane on the parkways is the best skiing. It's not bad along Ridge, but there are thin spots and rocks to watchout for, and more on the way with the traffic this weekend. Still great skating conditions in general.

The classic skiing is another story. The tracks are shallow and looks like M.C. Escher did the grooming. Lots of traffic has eroded the tracks in many places. More snow will be required to allow the groomers to sink good quality tracks in. Carrot was my guess for grip. If it was too slippery, then try alternating layers of carrot and tar.

Enjoy the mid-winter scenery and the early season skiing, but don't expect perfection.
