6" heavy wet snow.  Attempted to groom non motorized section.  Able to set one set of classic tracks and a skate lane over most of the return trip back.  Snow was isothermal in spots.

Skier reported at 11:20am that crust skiing is fantastic.

Last night it only partially refroze and lots of debris came down. This morning did a few passes with roller on 1k+4k to smooth out some ruts and postholes. Unless we get some hard freezes so we can work it more, expect a punchy lumpy trail in the days ahead.
