THE UTAH NORDIC ALLIANCE
East Canyon groomed for skate and classic to Big Mountain.
Conditions are average for the first mile (poor snow conditions). Better skiing after that.
Enough of this 40 degree weather in January!!!!!!
Numerous moose sittings tonight. Including a mama and yearling in the middle of the trail at Affleck Campground.
Give these big guys plenty of room!!
Spruces was groomed this afternoon for both skate and classic. Conditions continue to get better after the additional snow earlier this week. We tried out some new equipment today which laid down some nice corduroy. Come on up and enjoy the trails along with the great conditions.
Fairview got an inch or so last night. The track was groomed this morning and skate lane looks great. There is a classic track set on the lower loop only but it is light. I will try to attach the track renovator device to get a little more deep into the base and set a better track the next day or two.

The lower track is groomed for skate and a new classic lane is set. The upper track is being groomed for skate. Classic lane is wavy in spots due to inconsistent weather pattern the past few days. Enjoy the new snow. Have a great ski!
Good morning skiers! All trails were groomed last night except Bypass and Camp Loop. The classic skiing will be excellent today, skate deck will be good but may be a bit soft with the new snow. It’s shaping up to be a gorgeous day here so head on up!

2-3″ of moist new snow fell overnight. Gorgeous morning! Main Loop, Mitten, Lolipop, Kids Loop, Creek, Boomerang and Wiggle room were groomed up with nice corduroy. Lower loop and Cullen’s remains closed. Classic was set on all loops last night and might be a bit filled in spots for the early birds. Watch for a few wet spots from recent rain, otherwise track is in great shape. Enjoy.
Tried grooming mid morning and was unable to set classic track from Trailhead to Elbow Fork. Was successful setting classic track above Elbow Fork. It is very soft and moist above Elbow Fork and very firm below Elbow Fork. Icy in the early morning hours and somewhat softer conditions in the afternoon
Hammer and Jeff groomed most of the course Friday morning for skate only. Tried to reset classic on a short section of Main but it was too frozen. Groomed the Creek and the World Cup but closed them as the snow needs to set up, especially on World Cup. Did not groom Lower.
Good Morning from the Solitude Nordic Center! Trails have been groomed with the cat this morning for skate and classic. Skating will be good today with warmer snow temps around 30 degrees.
The Bypass, camp loop, and New sensation have not been groomed today, but I expect to get to them and all trails tomorrow morning.
Enjoy your ski today!

Hi all, the track was groomed today and classic track was set. The snow was pretty wet today, hopefully we get colder temps soon. Have fun!
Hi all, Spruces was groomed today and classic track was set. Snow was pretty dang wet today, hopefully we get colder temps soon. Have fun!
We are warm today! Conditions will be very soft and skiing not recommended until temperatures drop and I can hopefully create a good surface again. A bit of new snow would help.

It’s a good day to remember that there is no bad weather, only poor clothing choices. Warm and wet today with periods of mixed rain and snow. Not an easy day for classic waxing, but a great day for using skin skis or skating. Midday should be the prime time for skiing. Everything will be touched up for grooming. Please remember masks are REQUIRED indoors at the Nordic Center. We’re doing this for your health, for our health and for all of our families. We want to stay open and continue to see your smiling faces.
