	Comments:	The X-C on Tripoli Road is immaculately groomed. Mt Osceola Trail had a firm under base but had not seen much recent traffic. Surprisingly post holes were not too bad. There were a couple inches crunchy new snow and sometimes wet sticky snow. Snowshoes were used bottom to top. I saw two skiers in the a.m. and one hiker at the summit. Excellent weather today no wind and moderate temps.
