Theodore Wirth

With my sister in town, I didn't want to abuse her further than the hills at Battle Creek, so we elected to hit the front 9 on Wirth. I did double pole intervals, and she skated, and all was reported to be pretty good. Snow under the train bridges is fine, but over the bridge towards Highway 55 is thin. (Thanks to the shovelers under the bridge! Perhaps the Loppet folks will have some shovel parties once the new snow falls to thicken the usual thin spots.) There were a few grassy areas but nothing too bad; you could probably use good skis but rock skis are advisable.

I can only get to two trails at most, on a good day! Check out all the trail reports at skinnyski.com
