A bit brisk out there this morning. -4 with some breeze across the airport. The skiing remains awesome. Packed dry powder that is a treat to have for snow conditions. The sun is out and while it is a bit chilly there are some spots to hide from the breeze and get your ski on. Temps are supposed to rise to about 5 above by around 2PM.
The outer loop, trails #9,#10 and #6 were groomed well with tracks set. See detailed conditions for cautions on outer loop. #5 in the woods has good coverage with a rugged section right at the entrance off of #2 for about 30 yards of roughness from the logging that is now completed. The rest beyond is quite nice and you'll find fresh grooming on most of the core trails as well as the outer loop trails.
Stop in for trail suggestions.
A lot of skiing to be had here right now and good rout options to help stay warm out ther
Tomorrow looks better and Sunday looks even better as the winds are supposed to be calm, the sun will be out and the temps will rise into the teens.
Bundle up and come up for a ski no better way to get out on a cold day than XC SKIING. Do it.

About as nice of a cold winter January morning as it gets out there this AM. An incredible sunrise out there with the sun's warmth creating frost fog above Ole's trail system. A balmy 6 degrees to start but Temps. will rise to a high of 17 degrees today with calm winds forecast. It's gonna' be a good day......... again.
All of the core trails including #1 and #11 and #2a received fresh grooming this morning. Also groomed is #6 to the #7 junction and into the #4 loops. The outer loop of #6 to 10 and #9 is rolled out nicely and will be given the royal grooming treatment later today or early tomorrow morning. Nice down there but ski with caution and careful as always on the downhill sections.
Tomorrow looks a little chilly I guess, not too bad for Cross Country in my opinion. Saturday and Sunday, with a high in the middle teens, full sun and calm winds forecast, look to be spectacular. We are looking at an epic weekend to be up at Ole's skiing way. I hope to see you all up here.

Nice cold start to the day with a fresh dusting of snow on the trails overnight. Things are in really nice condition. We have been able to get the woods of #5 open as the logging has been completed It is looking pretty good in there. The entrance of #5 Woods off the Junction of #2 right down the hill from the building is pretty rough for the first 100 ft or so. Be cautious as you enter.
The rest of the #5 woods is looking pretty darn nice all things considered. All other core trails are in excellent condition.
#5 BEST SKIED BY RETURNING FROM VIA THE WOODS AND HEADING OUT FROM THE SKI CENTER.
The outer loop, trails #6, #9 and #10 were rolled out yesterday. Reports were that it was really nice down there. As usual watch the downhill sections and ski with caution. Outer loop for advanced skiers only. Fresh grooming this morning on some of the inner core trails. Everything else should ski really nicely with a little bit of fresh on them.
Come up and enjoy VT skiing at it's finest. See you all up here.
