      <title>Cross Country Skiing Time!</title>
      <link>http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/Community/CountyBlogs/EntryId/196/Cross-Country-Skiing-Time</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Usually by this time in January we are up to our ears.......er, necks.........er at least ankles in snow!  In this strange winter of 2011-2012, we are struggling to find any snow!  We did however, find enough snow at &lt;a href="http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/LinkClick.aspx?link=414&amp;tabid=470&amp;mid=925"&gt;Quarry Park &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/Recreation/CountyParks/WarnerLakeCountyPark"&gt;Warner Lake park &lt;/a&gt;to make a valiant effort at grooming.  The crack grooming staff here was able to pull together enough snow for one little track at each of those parks.  I hear it's even better today with the unexpected bit of white stuff we got overnight.  We may take a crack at grooming &lt;a href="http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/Recreation/CountyParks/MississippiCountyPark"&gt;Mississippi &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/LinkClick.aspx?link=408&amp;tabid=470&amp;mid=925"&gt;Wildwood/Kraemer Lake Parks &lt;/a&gt;tomorrow, if the snow doesn't melt by then.  Please check out our &lt;a href="http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/LinkClick.aspx?link=425&amp;tabid=470&amp;mid=923"&gt;web page &lt;/a&gt;for the details of grooming conditions and the dates they are done.  We update this immediately after it's finished.  You can even sign up to get email updates if you wish.  Now, we can't guarantee snow, but if it falls, we'll be out there setting tracks. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please keep doing the snow dance, or start, and happy skiing!  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=http://www.co.stearns.mn.us/Community/CountyBlogs/EntryId/196/Cross-Country-Skiing-Time&gt;More ...&lt;/a&gt;</description>
