Sorry, forgot to bring my phone, so no photos. Trail across the lake is a bit of a mess, with walkers, snowshoers, and skiers all using the same track. That being said, there's so little snow on the lake it's easy to make your own trail. Snow is wet and soft, and water fills the tracks soon after.

The Alluvial Fan trail is skier single trackset over machine tracks. Trail is in good condition, but the snow is soft, wet, and crunchy. Temperature was hovering around 0 most of the day. Saw only 5 skiers all day. The snow is perfect for a snowball fight.
