Badger State Games, Nordic Ski at Nine Mile
I had a great 10K classic ski today! Temps in the low teens with fresh snow. I used Toko Carbon Grip Wax white resulting in excellent grip however glide was lacking in the fresh snow due to lack of attention in waxing the tips and tails. Tracks ranged from non-existent in a few stretches to good in most areas and better than good in some areas. Crews have been moving snow to the few thin spots in preparation for Badger State Games. I am expecting great skate conditions and good classic conditions.
