Great improvements - the Rikert crew has added a couple of trails for the 2014/15 season. It will add some fabulous new terrain, along babbling brooks, fields and woods, while improving the accessibility to the outer trails during races. Cannot wait to play on them!<br />

<div>
Nothing to complain about!<br /></div>
Awesome corn snow. Full coverage. High traffic trails provide a good poling platform. Less traveled routes are a touch "punky". Skating is excellent AND tracks are still in good shape for kick and gliders.<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Get it while it lasts!!</span><br />

We worked all through the night to keep ahead of Vulcan - the snow storm, and packed, rolled and groomed everything possible. A snow depth probe revealed at least three feet of snow out by Brown Gate!<br />
The woods are quiet and protected from the winds and just feel like a winter wonder land. <br />
This morning Jane and I skied out over Holland - Frost - Brown Gate - Upper Gilmore - Gilmore and back to the shop. Alex headed out on snowshoes to find in his words: "great quality powder snow" - It truly is the best snow of the year! You really don't want to miss out on this one!<br />

The trails are in great shape, and the skiing is wonderful, especially with the newly fallen snow. <div>
The temps are to be in the mid 20's today. Yesterday I skied up Inner Frost - Frost - Figure 8 and found it to be the best skiing I've done this season. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a full weekend of races, and some fantastic skiing, sunshine and smiles all around.<br />
Yesterdays temperatures brought corn snow condition to the trails.<br />
<br />
Today (Monday) the temperatures are a bit more seasonable - in the mid 20s.<br />
Grooming is underway - the skiing is fast and wonderful, the Battell Forest and our Trails await you. <br />

We have been so busy skiing that we've not posted lately. Our rental fleet has all seen fresh snow lately as has our brand new back country equipment. All the trails at Rikert are ready for you to explore........<br />
Send us your feedback, we'd love to hear about your trail experiences, see pictures and so on. <br />
Off to eat and ski some more, see you out there,<br />
Carrie<br />

The Tormondsen Trail is incredible and such good exercise. The width makes is great for all level of skier out there, and the snow depth the crew made just incredible. You'll have to take a gander when you are out there. The trail is groomed for skate and classic skiing.<br />
Some of the outer trails have been okay to ski on too although the cover is a bit thin. Best to bring your classic skis and perhaps not your brand new ones. Battell Woods have been beautiful, I just love the trees in there. <br />
See you soon.<br />

Cold and sunny today with winds out of the south west. </div>
<div>
Again dig out your GREEN waxes, cover your ears and nose, put a little vaseline on your cheeks and have a great adventure. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The woods have been a haven from the wind.<br />
<br />
The Rikert Snowmaking and Trail Crew has done a superb job opening up 20 km of groomed trails for skiing. Snowshoeing and Snow Biking is another great option with 50 km of trails open. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You have been anxiously waiting, and yesterday the Snowmaking and Grooming Crew (Matt, Alex, Mark, Kirk, Noah, Chas and Mike) celebrated the completion of the <a href="http://www.rikertnordic.com/home/trail-maps/">Tormondsen Race Course</a>. Not a small job after all the torrential rainstorms and warm spells we had during December and January. Give them a pat on the back when you see them. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Come grab your skis and give the 5k a go. The course has been groomed for both Classic and Skate. </div>
<div>
See you there.</div>

The fields are a bit wind-blown, but once you are in the woods it is wonderful. <br />
So head on in to the woods and have fun.<br />
After the last snow fall more terrain is open to play on.<br />
Right now the temperatures feel fabulous, but will be dropping again. <br />
50 k open for snow shoeing and snow biking.<br />
20 k groomed for skate and classic skiing.<br />

Sunshine, new snow, 8 trails open, and 20 km groomed! <br />
Pack your bags, and head on up to Rikert this morning - dress in many layers - it is cold. <br />
Bring a buff for your face and cover your ears. Wax up those skis with any green waxes you can find (wax-less is great too) and have a fantastic ski.<br />
Or come and snowshoe or snow bike, the woods are magical.<br />
The lodge will have a fire going in the wood stove, and there is sure to be something warm to drink or eat. <br />
See you there,<br />

The current ski conditions are fabulous. The weather is warmer than it has been although the wind and lack of sun makes it a bit nippy. So bring lots of layers to wear, a buff for your face and you should be good to go. <br />
<br />

<li>For the general public we have the field, the first loop and the sugar house downhill open, additionally people have been skiing across the road in the fields. </li>
<li>We are hosting a High School classic race this morning from 10 am - noon. Pretty exciting to watch all these kids ski, so come on up and cheer them on.</li>
<li>At 1 pm there will be a Fat Bike event - run on trails surrounding Battell woods, and single track through the woods up by the First Loop.</li>

We have 4.5 km of beautiful groomed skate and classic skiing, and there are<br />
50 km of excellent Snowshoeing and Fat Biking.<br />
<br />
Wax for the day is anything GREEN or Blue, so dig deep and see what you have stashed away - otherwise we can help you here at the shop. <br />
Bring a buff for your face and dress in many light wicking layers. Then come into the lodge and warm up by the fire. <br />
