Timm's Hill National Trail Cross Country Skiing

The Timm's Hill Trail is groomed for both classic and skate skiing. It's groomed at minimum weekly and after each snowfall as necessary to ensure a quality skiing experience.

From the south end, the first 3 miles of the trail start out fairly flat and are great for beginners and families. The next 7 miles get progressively hillier and offer more of a challenge for the intermediate to advanced skiers.

Snowshoeing, skijoring, and well behaved pets are welcome on the Timm's Hill Trail,

We received 3" of snow Sunday and 3" Monday. Unfortunately, while grooming Monday night, another bogie wheel failed on my tracks. Parts have been ordered, but will be at least a week before I'm grooming again. The weather forecast is predicting 8"-12" of snow for Thursday, so it will probably take several days of grooming once I get the parts installed.

Parts finally arrived and I got everything installed. I packed the 10" of snow on the THT tonight and will groom again Saturday to clean it up and set tracks. Should be good skiing on Sunday, the one warm day (if you call 11�F "warm"!) before another Deep Freeze sets in. The THT is now groomed to the Beginner/Blue Loop on the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails.

We received another 3" of snow Thursday night. Unfortunately not all the parts I need arrived today. It will be late next week before I'm able to start grooming again. The Beginner/Blue Loop on the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails is now open and groomed, so when I get the THT groomed, it will connect to the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails.

The Beginner/Blue Loop on the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails is closed for logging. It should be open around the middle of January. Until then, the groomed THT will not connect to the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails. We received 4" of snow Friday night. I groomed the THT and set tracks Saturday morning from Rustic Rd #1 in Taylor County ((Mile 1/2) to Hwy to Heaven (Mile 7) in Price County. Conditions are excellent.

I packed, groomed, and set tracks on the THT in Taylor County from Rustic Rd #1 to the County Line. It should set-up pretty good with the cold temps, but it might be a little soft and rough in spots. I also groomed and set tracks on the rest on the THT, from the Taylor/Price County Line (Mile 2) north to Hwy to Heaven (Mile 7). The High Point Trails are being packed and should be groomed this weekend.

The section of the THT in Taylor County is closed and will not be groomed until January 1, 2014. Until then, the groomed THT will not connect to the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails. It's was really warm Saturday - 35�! That melted the snow off the trees, so there's a lot of clumps & bumps of snow on the trail. And now it's going to REALLY get cold Sunday thru Thursday. I won't be able to groom the THT until Tuesday or Wednesday.

We received 6" of snow on 11/20/2013. I groomed the THT from the Taylor/Price County Line (Mile 2) north to Hwy to Heaven (Mile 7) Sunday night, 12/1/2013. We also received 6" of snow Tuesday night and then rain Wednesday afternoon. Everything froze Wednesday night. I groomed the THT from the Taylor/Price County Line (Mile 2) to north to Hwy to Heaven (Mile 7) Thursday night, 12/5/2013. I was able to break-up the layer of ice on top of the snow. There are a few rough spots, but overall I think it groomed pretty nice. I did not set tracks. The High Point Ski Trails have not been groomed as of Thursday night. Right now the temperature is 0�. It's going to be a cold weekend - highs in the single digits Friday & Saturday and teens on Sunday.
