Nordic Pulse

Happy Winter Solstice! The skate lanes on the Lighted Loops, Arlene's Way, Sisson, Elliot's and World Cup have been refreshed. Besh Cup Race #1 takes place today and race #2 tomorrow at Kincaid. Have fun out there!

Worked most of the park.  Our thin base is holding up.  Let's hope this next warm period is not lengthy or extreme.

The road to the outhouse had the center skate lane freshened up tonight. Classic tracks still in good shape. Support grooming by the Mat-Su Ski Club

School loops, biathlon range, 7km, and Mary Loup in excellent condition.  The McNeil squad will be working on the 5km and Big Dipper today.

Groomed Murphy Trailhead, Moose Meadows, Bridge to Bridge, Secret Trail, Xander's Gander. Bridges are in on Secret and Porcupine. Good ski conditions. Support grooming by MatSu Ski Club!!

Sunset Loop  and  Midway  groomed this morning.

Snow is starting to get a little harder but roughed up the fines and created an edgeable surface. Decent skiing. Enjoy!

Hard packed clear ice with a dusting of snow on top. Removed five downed trees and made three passes on trails and Stadium which is down to grass. Can't really recommend skiing at this point. More snow please!

Freshend up the Mat-Su loops.  Completely re-groomed the stadium, Pioneer, Eska, Butte, and Mtn Streams loops.

All singletrack trails groomed. Nice and smooth.

The Mahaffey Loop got the trail edges pushed out today.  It will be very soft on the sides but about a meter more wide in sections.  Great time for someone to set a classic track on the edge.   Patrick may head out again tomorrow.  It's about as good as it ...
