Note
Due to the warm temperature, we had yesterday and the temperature below zero we had last night. Ungroomed trails are closed as they are icy and unsafe. However, groomed trails are not recommended. Be cautious, the base is hard and icy mostly on hills. Leaves, debris and ice can be found on the trails. The ground may also be exposed in certain areas.
Hier mein zweiter Versuch:
Mal wieder ein Lebenszeichen von mir: Eine Schneeglöckchenwiese im Wald.😀

Note
Maintenance work have been interrupted because of the rain and warm weather. They will resume when the air temperature drops below 0°C.
With the temperature at -13°C (8°F) and a windchill of -20C (4°F) the canal looks like it will reopen for one last day before everything melts. Only a short portion of under 2 km will open at noon and it is only rated as "poor". If this is it for this winter then it will have been open only nine days, only a small section and never rated better than "poor".
@Kathryn Barr and I don't skate on it unless it is rated "good" or "very good" as "poor" is damn dangerous for surface conditions. Even "fair" is not good enough to skate with any degree of safety.
The official webcam photo below shows prep underway this morning.
