LATEST TRAIL CONDITIONS
SUN, MAR 8
Hickory Hills: Very nice late-season conditions this morning at Hickory. The sprint loop, low grade road and lighted loop were all pistenbully groomed. Thank you to city staff for grooming the Nordic trails before working on the Alpine runs. That is so important this time of year. Although ungroomed, the entire upper trail system remains intact, including the lower portion of the beast which always breaks early due to sun exposure. I have high hopes that the even the upper trails will survive until the cold weather returns later this week. This is also my opportunity to recognize and thank Coach K for his tireless dedication and the other volunteer groomers for the incredible work on Hickory Meadows and the hillside early and throughout the season.
