The blizzard was a dud, we picked up only 4cm of snow.  However, that was enough to set track.

We picked up about 5cm of snow yesterday.  The trails were groomed and track set as of Sunday, so this amount should keep it skiable.  Will post if any further grooming reports come in.  Enjoy the powder conditions.

We are now set up nicely for the two NYSSRA races to take place this weekend in Cole's Woods.

Snow Report

Temp: -24.5C
Snow Height: 4cm

The 4cm sleet and ice did not melt fully and froze hard, with a dusting of clipper we were back to the 4cm mark. Very cold hope for more snow.

AM Snow Report

Snow Height: 4cm

We picked up snow and sleet, it is a sheet of ice everywhere, if the rain and melt are not too severe we have an instant base, then clipper snow during the week things could be quite skiable. Cross your fingers and check back tomorrow.

Thaw Report

At least one cross-country skier was naughty (and it only takes one) because we got a hard thaw for Christmas.  Back to dryland until the next snow comes. Happy holidays regardless...

Pre-thaw Conditions

Snow height: 11cm

We got only sleet last night.  Trails should be rock skiable.  Good skiing at Queensbury and Kensington schools, while it lasts. Check back Thurs. for conditions post thaw.

Merry Christmas!

Still Skiing

Sorry out of town so had not posted.  We still have 12cm snow on the measuring stick.  Not sure how Cole's Woods is holding up, but crust skiing on fields is a lot of fun.  Kensington School is groomed, Queensbury should be, will check, but at least good crust skiing while the cold holds until the coming thaw on Wednesday.

Snow Report

Snow height: 10cm

We picked up just ice, sleet, and rain in the storm yesterday.  Snow height unchanged, but it should make for a solid base for the next snow we get the next days.

Snow Report

Snow height: 10cm
Snow type: frozen packed light powder on top

We had on Wed. more snow than rain and yesterday more rain than snow but it all frozen today so good at least rock skiing base.  Cold and sunny today will report back if trails get groomed.  New equipment will be ready next week.

Thaw Report

After 3 good days of skiing in weatherwise if not base-wise, winter conditions, today things have thawed fast without a real base underneath.  Went from about 20cm this morning densifying/melting down to 8cm, back to winter prep.
