15 Jan Ridge and Parkways-grooming well underway

I left P10 around 9:30 heading toward the North Loop and then up Penguin and the groomers were out in force.  The parkways, and Ridge had been done except for Champlain Parkway between the two Ts.  This section was very icy but with one or two mm of snow it was barely doable.  Some sections had been groomed earlier only for skating but the track setting seems to be catching up.  Where it was groomed conditions were fast and fun.  I assume that by later this afternoon the entire parkway network will be fantastic and they will keep working on the secondary trails.

  1. The lower part of the Park was the place to ski today, unlike the broken debris surface of Ridge and Upper Parkway. By the time I got out on the trails the groomers had done their job. Everything from P3 to P6 with the exception of #7 and 15 was in perfect skating and track set condition. The skating surface was soft on a firm granular slick base. Fun and fast, could have skied all day.
