White Pine

A couples private classic or skate lesson makes a great lifelong Valentines gift. Just a hint.

Very cold overnight and this morning on the trails again. A beautiful sunrise with a significant chance of snow later today! We did not regroom the 3km loop, Armstrong last night, we are holding off in anticipation of the storm today. The trails are in very good shape and squeaky this morning. The skate track and the classic track are still in place and skiing well. None of the other trails are open or suitable for skiing right now. Patience for more snow will be rewarded as early as this afternoon according to the weather prognosticators. Very cold temperatures all day mean that it will be a green or blue for kick and definitely a green or blue wax for glide. Skiing will be a bit slow and sticky if your skis are not waxed well. The surface will be firm through the day with the cold temperatures. Please pay attention to where you are going out there. Be aware of icy patches under the snow and walk with care in your ski boots. We are working together with Park City to make your community resource as wonderful as we can year-round.

The store and service shop are OPEN! We can’t control the weather, but we can wax your skis and upgrade your gear. No walking, dogs, running, cycling, driving or trespassing on the trails. If you need to take a physical and/or mental therapy break we’re here for you every day. It is a great day to drop off your skis for a relaxing spa treatment after your spin on the trail. Bundle up with your best mittens, keep a careful eye on any exposed skin today. Enjoy a steamy cup before you head out, seek Joy outdoors, cruise the trails, be safe and be kind. Thank you for being part of our amazing ski community and reading another long-form, and somewhat informative trail report. Grab your warm gloves, your beanie, go for a ski and then drop in the store to say hi. All nordic poles, high performance waxes and kids clothes in the shop are on sale now! Snow dances of all styles are welcome and appreciated.

We have another Toko Wax clinic this Friday at 3:30 at the Nordic Center. Come and learn how to take care of those skis and keep them gliding. $10 fee to attend. We’ll be giving away a pair of poles after the clinic and all waxes and waxing accessories will be on sale after the clinic. Gift yourself some glide for Valentines day!
