Groomed for skate and classic today on all trails. Currently 44 degrees warming up later to 48. Be aware of the conditions on new sensation, it may be a bit icy.

repeat from yesterday. More sun, more heat. great skiing early, slush festival later. Get some structure on those skis. All trails groomed and open, but the 5k is starting to show the effects of the extreme heat. Ski it while you can! Stay safe!

Grooming is on hold at Mountain Dell. As of sunset on Tuesday night, you could ski a complete loop on Main, Mitten, Kids and the top of Lollipop without touching grass, but that will not be the case Wednesday. If snow comes in as predicted on Saturday night/Sunday, we will assess and try to continue grooming. Until then, if you are eager to put skis on snow at Mountain Dell, be prepared to walk over a few short patches of grass. Best timing is perhaps 10 A.M. to noon, or after 6 P.M., when the surface will begin to firm up again.

26°F this morning at the Nordic Center. Trails groomed for skate and classic skiing. Still mostly fine- grained snow with some transformation under the trees and areas that get a lot of sun. Early in the day will be better, before it warms up too much.

March 1st, but it’s going to feel like April. Extreme Spring continues with afternoon temperatures expected near 50F. All trails groomed and track set wherever possible. Classic skiing on the whole networks was quite good yesterday and should be good today as well. Icy and slushy mix as the day goes on. Best skiing will be from 9 until about 2. then slush and slow will rule the afternoon. Skiing in the afternoon may leave deep ruts that will be difficult to groom out tomorrow so it might be a good afternoon to rewax and restructure those skis. Or even come into the shop to buy some of the remaining skis and boots. Life is short, have good equipment. Please mask up indoors while visiting us. Help us stay healthy and open for you. Ski safe!

Mountain Dell

Main, Mitten, Lollipop Top and Kid’s Cut-Off groomed for skate only Monday evening. Current conditions (water, slush, ice, grass) in many areas would not allow a reset of the classic without the potential of doing damage to the golf course. Surprisingly, good sections of classic still exist from the weekend crews. Aspect dependent. The snow that does exist is dirty and variable, but reasonable skiing should be had Tuesday before temperatures once again climb. My guess for best skiing is somewhere between 10:00a-12:00p. Outside this window expect to find ice, snow, slush, water and grass. Additional caution is warranted in these conditions and definitely time to leave the race skis in the stable. Still, a good day for a brief slide in glorious Wasatch sunshine. Enjoy!

Groomed at 6:30 am this morning (Monday Feb 28). 20 degrees F.
Groomed for Skate: Main, Mitten, Lollitop and Kids Cutoff. All others are closed.
Skate conditions are good. Classic tracks were not groomed. They are thin and icy with a few bare spots. Still skiable.

For those considering skating to the top, I went there late yesterday. Above the first switchback, the skate deck is firm, with a soft yet crunchy surface. It seemed reasonably fast, even with not being groomed. It was in better shape than many days where snowmobiles damage it right after our groom. You’ll have last night’s groom to the first switchback and then “rustic” 65 conditions above it. Very nice outing.

Another blue sky, blue wax morning. SPF50+ is the recommendation. All trails smoothed out and open. Classic skiing should be pretty good until afternoon, skating as well. Significant warming this afternoon will lead to some troublesome icy and soft spots later. Best skiing will be between 10 am and 2 pm. All bets are off after that as temps are expected to be near 40 degrees F. Winter transitions into spring once again..

Stay safe, please mask up indoors still to help us stay healthy and open for you. Boots and skis are starting to get skinnier on the walls, if you’re looking to upgrade your gear, don’t wait too long.

A quick refresh on skate and classic Sunday night from the gate to the first switchback. Classic for the first mile is poor to fair, and then gets better. Skate is OK from the gate to the first switchback. Tonight’s groom was mostly to test a new classic setter. It did not impress. Last call? Seems likely, with high temperatures in the 50s Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Get it Monday!
