Green Rock Area - 2/28/10 from Jay Jurkowitsch went from Green Rock, up Sally Creek trail, behind Snowy Mtn Lodge; to Skinny Dip Meadows. The trail along Sally Creek is well broken, even with the 8-12" of fresh snow and Skinny Dip is in the BEST shape in years; again, about 8" of fresh snow and very few (2) tracks.
3/01/10 from Andrew Bryson Skied up Potholes to Brooklyn Lake then to Towner Lake. >From there across the highway to Libby Creek and back down Sally Creek. The snow is excellent everywhere above Green Rock !!

Barber Lake - 3-20-10 from Rich Vincent: Skied from Corner Mountain to the snow measuring stake on Libby Creek Trail. There was about 6 inches of new but it was getting a bit crusty already. Only one rock was visible on all the roads or trails and pretty good coverage on the paved sections of the road near the lodge.

Chimney Park Trails:3-28-10 from Jim Robinson: As of March 28, 2010: Mild temperatures and gusty winds greeted skiers today at Chimney Park. There have been two or three snow events in the last week causing multiple layers of powder and crust throughout the trail system. There has not been any grooming in over two weeks and it is desperately needed. Skiers will find limited ski tracks to follow on several trails. Unfortunately, some of the ski tracks have been obliterated by snowshoers. Proper trail etiquette would suggest that snowshoers travel to the side of the maintained ski trails while classic and skate skiers remain on the groomed portion. And dog owners, please pick up your dog poop from the trails so the rest of us don’t have to ski through it.
3-11-10 from Craig Rumsey (USFS Groomer): We groomed CP today. We started just after it finished snowing and we got a classic track on all of the trails. Hopefully the trails hold up over the next several days of nice weather.
