Trail Report for Friday, 1-16-2026

Early morning lake effect snow continued until mid afternoon resulting in an additional seven inches of light fluffy snow.  Groomers were out all day rolling and packing the new snow in advance of the Winterfest ski races on Saturday morning.  Later tonight the race courses will receive their final groom.  Course conditions should be near perfect on Saturday however because of the new snow pole plants and skate lanes will be a bit soft.

Ski race registration is open until Saturday morning til 9 am.  The races are geared towards the beginner skier to the more advanced.  Additionally, there are three miles of snowshoe trails to be explored.

MECCA Ski Trails will be open to the general public later on Saturday afternoon after the ski races.
