Hi folks, Bill’s groom from yesterday still looking good. I did a quick groom today to refresh the skate lane and tried resetting the classic track on the Upper Loops. The classic track is “marginal” at best, in some parts it set okay and in others it didn’t set at all. We really could use new snow, but conditions are still nice. Cold this morning but warmed up as sun came out. Enjoy!
Solitude Nordic
No grooming today due to mechanical problems. We should be out this afternoon grooming from about 4:30-6:30, so please end your ski at 4:30 today.

Track Conditions
The lower track has been groomed for skate and a classic lane is set. The upper track is groomed for skate. Classic lane is bumpy in spots but in good condition in most areas. Skate trails are firm and fast with colder overnight temperatures. Enjoy the beautiful day!
Mountain Dell
All loops groomed for skate Monday evening, except the Lower below Cullen’s which remains closed due to thin snowpack conditions. Even the World Cup was freshened up for the hardy souls who like a little spice in their lives. The classic track was left alone as it could not be improved upon under current conditions (big thanks to Tim and Jerry for their work setting really nice classic Sunday evening). Despite almost no new snowfall for the entire month of January, the track remains in remarkably good condition and skiing should be quite good today. Here’s hoping that Ullr treats us better in February. Air quality should be much better today at Mountain Dell than it was Sunday, so come up for a slide in the sunshine. Enjoy!
White Pine
Groundhog Day? Same trail report for the last 6 weeks. Very cold overnight, firm track all day, everything groomed and open, sunny afternoon. Another day of great skiing under the blue sky early. Definitely a day for your blue wax. Please help us stay open and healthy by wearing your mask indoors at the Nordic Center. It’s a small space with lots of happy people and we’d like to keep it that way. If you’re looking, we have shipment of Salomon skate boots in all sizes that just came in.
Everyone stay safe and we’ll see you outside on the trails!
Contact Richard if you’d love to join the team at White Pine!

A tiny bit warmer today, but a little breezy early so it doesn’t feel warmer. Be sure to layer well today. All trails are groomed and open and another spring-like spf 50+ day out there. Blues wax early, violet or red later depending on your brand preferences. Please wear your mask while indoors at the Nordic Center. We are trying to stay healthy and open. We finally got a negative review of our indoor mask policy yesterday. We’re okay with that because we do care about our families and the health of our awesome ski community.
The moose was on the 5k all day yesterday, so if you see it give it a wide berth and remember, no selfies with the wildlife. Ski safe!

Springtime continues in the Wasatch Back. Another crazy cold overnight leading into a warm sunny afternoon. All trails groomed and open for your skiing adventures. Bear in mind the track will be very firm most of the day but skiing should just get better and better as the day goes on. Definitely an SPF 50+ day.
No, we do not know why Thaynes Canyon Drive has suddenly been designated a residential parking only area. There are theories. The off street parking is still open as are the Hotel lots. Just park safe and legally please. Help us stay open and healthy by wearing your mask while indoors at the Nordic Center. We are getting an increasing number of openly hostile people and all we are doing is trying to stay open and keep our families healthy.
Still looking for some ski service and indoor rental/sales help!

Freshened up the East Canyon Highway for skate to the top this evening (Sat). Couldn’t improve existing classic track in current conditions. Expect a more thorough groom Monday afternoon.
