Our hours today will be 12:00pm until 4:00pm. Updated grooming report will be posted then. Some new snow overnight. Everyone please have a safe and healthy holiday. Please do not attempt to drive your motor vehicle on the ski trail. The only person who benefited from that was the tow driver. Neither WPT nor the Park City Police were amused.
Spruces
Merry Christmas! Santa stopped by Spruces and groomed all the loops for you holiday skiers. Vert wet snow made for poor grooming conditions, but the trails are groomed as best as possible. Be sure to keep an eye out for the Spruces Historic Trail signs to learn the neat history of the campground. Have fun!
Mountain Dell
Arrived to find 2-3″ of very wet snow this AM. 31 degrees when we arrived at 8:00, 37 degrees as I write this at 11:30. We groomed the Main, Mitten (shortened), Kid’s cutoff, Boomerang, Wiggle Room, and the Lollitop. We groomed but then closed the stem of the lollipop due to low snow. Conditions are marginal, to fair. It rained yesterday PM prior to snow. Take care with thin snow pack. Hopefully the next couple days we’ll get a little more substantial amount.
Please take a moment on the Mtn Dell page (https://utahnordic.org/mtndell/) to see the new webcam and snow stake.
Mountain Dell
3-inches of warm, wet snow fell overnight. We groomed main , upper mitten, out’n back, wiggle room and the upper lollipop for skate and classic, but the snow is thin in spots. Skiing will be better after the remainder of the storm. Beware that the handle of the lollipop is closed due to thin snow and car tracks. Also expect some ponding from the springs. Happy Holidays!
White Pine
We are open until 4 this afternoon! Everyone please have a safe and healthy holiday. Everything is groomed and track set after the couple inches of fresh snow last night. Please purchase and display your trail pass. Be a good example. A great day for skiing. We’ll be open noon until 4 tomorrow. Please wear your mask inside the shop. We want to enjoy the holidays with our families too!
Solitude Nordic
Redman’s only groomed for skate and classic this morning. We received 5-6 inches of new snow last night.
Mountain Dell
Be a bit lazy before coming to ski today. Concern about moisture has us grooming a bit later this morning. It rained hard for a while before changing to snow, giving us 2-3 inches. Steve and David are producing your Christmas Eve track right now, planning to wrap up some new skate and classic by about 10:30 A.M. Best skiing at noon or later. Thanks for skiing Mountain Dell!
Mountain Dell
Groomed Main, MItten to cutoff, Lollytop, Wiggle Room, Boomerange, Kid’s Cutoff and Park Road by pass for skate this morning. We did try a new classic track on the Mitten as well. It did freeze just enough overnight so that the skating should be very good until it rains today. The soone you can ski the better. Once it starts raining I would go shopping. Merry Christmas.
White Pine
It may be a very interesting afternoon! A good chance of expedition conditions later today. Warm this morning, everything will get a refresh before the storm rolls in mid-afternoon. Conditions should be very good this morning but it is expected to be quite breezy as the storm comes in. Best bet is an early ski, stop in to thank the staff for their hard work and check out the new gear that arrived yesterday. Yes, we have moderately priced poles back in stock. They won’t last long!

Light snow falling and 30° this morning. Redman Loops groomed for skate and classic.
Mountain Dell
We groomed skate only this morning on Main, Mitten, Kids Cutoff, Boomerang, Wiggle and Lollitop. All of lower is now closed until we get some more snow. Classic track is still in decent shape but was not reset. Should be great skating today! Enjoy!

Millcreek
Groomed and set track this morning. Could not set classic track from trailhead to elbow fork due to the hard snow packed conditions. Above elbow fork to big water the ski trail is in excellent condition
Spruces
Groomed all Spruces loops this morning. Beautiful day of skiing. A bit thin still in a few spots, will be better after snow this week!
Mountain Dell
Groomed Main, abbreviated Mitten, Lower to Cullen’s Boomerang, Wiggle Room, Lolli Top, Kid’s Cutoff and Park By Pass for skate. The Creek Loop, Lolli stem and Lower below Cullen’s remain closed. Current snow conditions did not allow a refresh/reset of classic and any attempt would not have improved upon what currently exists. That said, the classic is in quite good shape considering the thin snowpack in many areas of the course and shows very little glazing. Today should be a great day to get up to Mountain Dell for a slide. Early season conditions, so be looking out for some thin areas. The succession of multiple storms forecast for the next week will be much welcomed and should allow us to open more of the track and reset the classic. Enjoy!
Solitude Nordic
10° at 0815. Beautiful skiing on the Redman Loops only. Very cold snow. Enjoy!
