I went for a skate ski at WBC this morning. I skied all the skate-able central trails (E/W Crystal and Sundog), Moose Connector, and Mountain Road. There were a few exposed rocks in the first 1.5km of Mountain Road, and then good conditions beyond that. There was some mild tree debris throughout the trails, except at the top part of Sundog which quickly became a green carpet of large tree chunks. I skied this trail twice, 45min apart, and it was very noticeably worse the second time! Skate and classic tracks were glazed and fast, but still quite solid. I could really pick up speed heading east, but occasionally had to offset on flats and gentle downhills heading west.
