Another great day at PLPP. Started at Elkwood parking at 10:30 (temp -10) and finished at 2 PM with a temp of +6. Tracks were hard and fast. Overall the snow was cold and dry. I'll give a breakdown of conditions on each trail.
Wheeler, groomed Mar 20, had icy tracks in sections
Whiskey Jack, groomed Mar 19, the only icy section was the upper half of the steep hill
Trywhitt, groomed Mar 19, some debris where squirrels and wood peckers have been harvesting, some icy sections of tracks near the picnic table
Elk Pass, groomed Mar 22, excellent
Fox Creek, groomed Mar 22, excellent, best I've seen this year
Moraine, groomed Mar 22, excellent, best I've seen this year
Packers, groomed Mar 18, some icy sections of track, downhills very firm
Pocettera, groomed Mar 18, fast!
Lynx, groomed Mar 18, a few sun exposed areas getting soft near the end
I started with Swix 40, rewaxed with Swix 45 at the bottom of Packers, not much grip by the end.
