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,

Groomed the southern half of the THT (Rib Lake Blue Loop to Blomberg Bridge) again Friday. Widened the trail and set tracks. Grooming the northern half of the THT is still "in-progress".

We received 5" of snow Sunday and 13" of snow Tuesday. That's means I started today with 34" of new, ungroomed snow. I groomed the southern half of the THT (Rib Lake Blue Loop to Blomberg Bridge) 3 times today. It turned out pretty good - but it's a little narrow and no tracks set. I'm planning to groom it again Friday to widen the trail and set tracks. Grooming the northern half of the THT is "in-progress".

We received 8" of snow Tuesday and 8" of snow Thursday. But I'm out of town until Monday, so the THT will not be groomed until Tuesday, February 12.

We received 3" of snow Monday, and the temperature finally got above zero today! The entire THT is groomed and tracks set.

We received 2" of light, fluffy snow Thursday morning. The forecast for the next week has high temperatures barely above zero, so I'm not planning on grooming until February 1 or 2. I did skis Thursday afternoon, and it was still fast, even with the 2" of fluffy snow.

The THT was starting to get a little icy, but we got a 1/4" of snow this morning and it helped soften-up the trail. Not much snow in the forecast...
1/8/2019	1/8/2019	3"	5"	12 km	12 km	Very Good
We received 3" of wet, heavy snow. It all froze and groomed pretty nice. The entire THT is groomed and tracks set.

The section of the THT in Taylor County is closed and will not be groomed until January 7, 2019. Until then, the groomed THT will not connect to the Rib Lake Ski & Snowshoe Trails. We had rain, 3" of snow, and then more rain. It finally all froze and it groomed pretty nice. Most of the dirty spots are gone. I still recommend using old skis and skis carefully - especially on the down hills.

We've had warm temps the last few days which has taken a toll on the snow. 80-90% of the THT is still pretty good, but the bad spots are getting bigger and dirtier. There is no significant snow in the forecast. Use old skis and skis carefully - especially on the down hills.
12/14/2018	12/14/2018	3"	3"	8 km	0 km	Fair
We received 3" of snow Wednesday. The THT was groomed Friday morning from the County Line (Mile 2) to Timm's Hill. The snow is still thin and there are "dirty" spots with leaves and sticks mixed in the snow. Use old skis and skis carefully - especially on the hills. No Tracks Set.
