Looking at another spring skiing day. Coverage is holding well, but very cold overnight again. Warming quickly through the day so the sweet spot will probably be in the 11 to 1 range. Very firm track in the morning with a few icy spots from the daily freeze thaw cycle. All 20+km 0f trails groomed this morning after a huge ski day yesterday. If you are a beginner we recommend skiing at brunch time rather than first thing. Please remember MASKS MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES INDOORS AT THE NORDIC CENTER. and to the guy who pulled his shirt up to cover his mouth and over-shared his belly…. definitely not a mask. We are trying to stay open and healthy. Please help us.

Plan your carpool now for the WCS race on Saturday. Parking will be tight as always and the neighbor is still very engaged in his efforts. Please park safely and legally and do not block roads or driveways.

Mountain Dell

Mountain Dell was groomed Sunday night. Classic reset on Main. Mitten, Kids Cut-off and Lower to Swanson’s Cut-off. Good Classic still exists on Lower to Cullen’s Cut-off.

Skate lanes were refreshed on Main, Mitten, Lower To Cullen’s, Creek Loop, World Cup, Lollipop, Boomerang, Wiggle Room, Kid’s Cut-off and Park Road Bypass.

Conditions remain firm and and fast on all surfaces. Please use caution out there and have a great MLK holiday!

Fairview Nordic track was groomed this morning. I buffed out the skate lane. Very firm track and it should skate fast and lovely. Classic track is older but still firmly in place. I just don’t know that I can improve on it until there is some more fresh snow.

Spruces

Upper Spruces (Milt’s Loops), Practice (Infield), Pavilion loops and Lower Spruces groomed for skate. Existing classic set from Saturday is in reasonably good condition in most places and was not reset. Should be a beautiful day to get out of the valley haze and enjoy some sliding in the sunshine on your national forest lands. Still empty parking spots in the main parking lot at 9:00 am. Enjoy!

Spring weather repeat. Very hard pack conditions early, we are grooming everything with sled and snowcat today, but conditions will be very exciting early. If you are a beginner, it might be worth having that second coffee before you head out. All trails open, but ski with awareness there are a few icy patches developing with this “weather” cycle. Please remember to park legally and drive safely when you visit us. The neighbor is watching and is very generous with observations. MASKS MUST BE WORN INDOORS AT ALL TIMES. Help us stay healthy and open for you.

Plan your travel and carpool now for the WCS race on Saturday!

All skate lanes were refreshed with good coverage throughout. Some icy spots on lower loop at Cullen’s cutoff.
Skiing should be good all around. Classic was not reset due to melt freeze. Sunny sky and good air at Mtn Dell today.

We are on weather repeat still. Cold mornings, light grooming and warm afternoons. All trails groomed and open for skiing. Springtime in January.. Please remember to wear your mask inside at all times at the Nordic Center. We want to stay healthy and open.

Last chance to register for Liz Guiney’s Race Prep Clinic that will be tomorrow 9-12. Call the Nordic Center to get one of the final slots.

Start making plans for carpooling and parking for the WCS race next Saturday. There is a neighbor who is up in arms about traffic, noise and parking. Make sure you park safely and legally and not on the road or blocking driveways. We are easily accessible from PC Transit, you could park at the farm and use the 2k ski as a warm up, we have surface parking all around the Hotel and underground. Please plan ahead. It will be an interval start ski-and-go covid style event again as it is still raging through the community. Let’s be safe and smart. Plan now.

The track continues to ski well in spite of the dry spell. Hat’s off to our snowmaking team keeping the thin spots, well….. thick. All skate loops were groomed and will ski fast and firm. The lower is now open to Cullen’s cutoff. No classic lanes were reset due to melt thaw but are in reasonable shape. Escape the haze as the days get longer.
