Too cold Monday

It's going to be 2 degrees with a -14 windchill tomorrow afternoon.  We will have to cancel practice.

I did groom again Sunday evening, and it should be great skiing this week.  I'll update the blog if we plan to get out another day this week.

Crisp tracks!

26 January 2023

Finally, some good snow to work with!  The trails groomed up really nice today, so get out there and enjoy them.  I plan to be there Friday after school for a skate practice; join us if you can.

Looks like we'll get a little more snow and some wind tomorrow, so there will be blowing and drifting.  But. I'm not complaining.  Then more snow on Saturday?  I will be out of town Sunday, but will re-groom as soon as I can.  

Hopefully we can have practice down there on Monday.  It will be soft and cold.  Bundle up and enjoy Winter!

Fresh tracks


Timber Coulee is groomed for skating and classic.  It should set up nicely by Saturday morning.  We are off to race in Rhinelander this weekend.  Let's plan on a classic practice on Monday afternoon; 3:45 at TC.

16 January - Plyos and bounding

Today will be a dryland practice.  Dress appropriately (raincoat?, hat, gloves, trail shoes) and bring classic poles and a mat for crunches etc.  Kids will run from VMS to Dragon Park at 3:20, where we will exercise under the pavilion.  Run back to school by 4:30.

The trails held up pretty well until today.  Now we'll have to wait and hope for snow on Wednesday/Thursday.

Skate practice Monday

The trails seemed to have held up pretty well through last week's mixed bag.  I groomed Sunday night and I think the skiing will be pretty good this week.  Please try to stay off the trails if it is above freezing and your skis leave deep ruts.

Practice Monday afternoon - Skating 3:45 - 5:00.
