Cross Country Ski Report – Saturday, January 20th

Bavarian Ski Festival at Cross Country Ski Headquarters

It’s another awesome day of XC skiing at the Headquarters! We received another dusting of snow last night. Groomer Mike is snow combing all the trails this morning. Tracks have been set on all trails, and Mike will reset tracks where needed this morning. There is approximately 12-18″ of snow in the woods, and about 7-10″ packed on the trails. Today is Bavarian Ski Festival! Join us for a bunch of fun, great food, and great times on the XC Ski HQ Sun Deck. Bavarian bratwurst, soft pretzels, German style potatoes and beer will be served around noon. Stein-holding contest starts at 2pm, Team Ski is at 3pm, and costume contest is at 4pm. Come celebrate winter with us today!

Today’s forecast: “Cloudy skies. A few flurries or snow showers possible. High 19F. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 mph.”
