XC Ski Headquarters Cross Country Ski Report – 02/02


Skiing with friends is guaranteed to bring out the smiles!

Happy Groundhog Day! We’re glad to see that winter will last another 6 weeks – of course we’d take another 16 if it were up to us ;). The trails remain in excellent shape and are snowcombed as of this morning. Classic tracks remain in good to great shape. We have a 4-6 inch base packed on the trails, and 8-10 inches in the woods. The Stone Turtle Cafe is open for lunch today. Keep an eye out for Groomer Mike spreading snow on the trails today.

Our demo center is open everyday! Work with a ski expert to get fitted, then try out skin, skate, waxable classic, or back country skis, so you can feel confident that you picked the right skis. Have fun out there!

Upcoming Events:
