Merry Christmas. Awoke to a beautiful fresh 6″of powder. Wishing you warmth and time with family during this holiday season.

Riders over the weekend rated the trails good-excellent. They rode from here to Grand Marais, Seney, Paradise (north and south routes) and Newberry. After a few sunny but cold days we added 7″ of snow last night to freshen up already great trails. The banks are surprisingly tall and the snow gauge shows 22″ on the ground.

Here at Halfway Lake we have 20" of snow on the ground, 6" of that being a good hard base. We are hearing reports of anywhere from 6" of snow in the town of Newberry to close to 3 feet in Paradise. The trails are seeing very few riders, but those out riding are smiling and have good reports. With minimal traffic, this may be some of the best riding we will see all season- who knows!?!??!

Groomers are out running and the amount of snow we have coupled with cold temps, the trails are setting up nicely with a hard base. We have added an inch or two of fluff on a daily basis.

It is nice to be "back to normal" and have some good rideable snow as an early Christmas present. I remember anticipating the trails opening on December 1st being the normal. We are hoping this is a reflection of what the rest of winter has to bring.
