Freeze/thaw cycles will create a hard frozen trail to start the day. Time your skiing to take advantage of rising temps, solar radiation, and a softening trail surface.

It was 37 degrees F at noon today (Thursday), there had been a hard overnight freeze, and the skate lane didn't start to soften until 10-10:30. The glaze in the classic track became more skier friendly very late in the morning. The trails are withstanding this early March warmup.

Bring your good skis, the base is adequate.
