Skating lane groomed this morning 1/18. Skating conditions are excellent. Classic track is still in place but is degraded in some spots.
Jeremy Ranch
The Upper 2.5k is not currently open due to lack of snow. The Lower 4.5k is open and thin on bridges and throughout the track. Classic is set but thin in certain areas. Lower will be groomed by 10:15am.
Mountain Dell
Monday grooming report. We groomed Sunday night on Main, Mitten, Kids cutoff and Lolli top all for skating. We also set a new classic track on Main and Kids cutoff, should not be as icy out there on Monday. It is getting pretty thin in a few spots, pray for snow!
Enjoy, Jerry and Paul

Upper 2.5k and Lower 4.5k will be groomed by 10:15am this morning. Firm conditions this morning but should soften up later in the day. The classic lane was reset and is thin in several areas. Bridges are holding but are narrowing in coverage. Have a great weekend!
White Pine
still making the best of what we have. 3k, 5k, Armstrong all hard packed in the morning, softening up midday with great afternoon skiing. Classic track is holding up as best it can. growing numbers of thin and narrowing spots. get out and enjoy the spring skiing! Farm and dog loop still iced, shallow and closed. Very little snow in the forecast, so act now!
Solitude Nordic
Redman loops groomed this morning. It will be good skiing (especially the classic).
Mountain Dell
Groomed last night for skate skiing on Main. Mitten, Boomerang, Lollipop Top, Kids Cut-off. Classic tracks were not reset. They are very firm and lacking in a few locations. Stay alert while skiing because there are numerous location where the snow cover is very thin.
SR-65
East Canyon groomed for skate this afternoon. Track is a bit thin for a little ways. Improves as you ascend.
Should be worthy of a skate tomorrow before it gets too soft.
Whatever snow dance or chant your doing isn’t working. Better change it up a bit!!
Fairview
Skied Fairview Saturday afternoon. It has not faced the extreme thaw/freeze that hit every nordic track near Salt Lake/Park City on Wednesday night. Very pleasant skate conditions. Did not use it today, but there is also well-formed classic track. A bit of a drive (90 minutes from downtown SLC), but the best conditions I have skied in the second half of this week.

Upper 2.5k and Lower 4.5k will be groomed by 10:15am this morning. Warmer conditions this morning have softened up the track. The classic lane was reset and is thin in several areas. Have a great weekend!
Mountain Dell
Main loop, Mitten, Lolipop and Kids cutoff groomed for skate. Coverage is still holding up with fast and firm conditions.
Please note: Wednesday’s extreme thaw/freeze has created conditions that will be very challenging to novice skiers. New skiers might consider choosing SR 65 (East Canyon/Big Mountain) on Saturday. SR 65 info can be found in the Area Trails page, under the Skiing tab.
Spruces
Barry M and Matt K groomed Spruces Friday night. Wednesday night’s extreme thaw/freeze is still evident, but it is getting better as it is worked more. All of the upper 3.3K (Milt’s Loop, Practice Loop, Pavilion Loop) received multiple passes to freshen up the skate. Mechanical issues prevented the resetting of classic track or any grooming on the lower/western 1.7K loop. Skiing on the lower/western loop is very, very firm and is not recommended.
Fairview
Classic track is well intact but a little degraded in places. Skate lane is excellent still. Groomed lower loop this afternoon for skating and will plan on grooming the remaining 5K for skating Sat 1/16 morning early.
SR-65
Groomed Friday afternoon. New classic set from the top to about mile marker 4 (one mile from the start). Skate was also groomed to the top. Likely icy in the AM tomorrow put should ski well at mid day.
Spruces
Groomed this morning. Pretty hard and icy but we were able to resurface it a bit. Be careful going too fast down the hills. The classic track is set but a bit marginal and thin in two spots. Have fun out there, hopefully more snow soon!
Jeremy Ranch
Upper 2.5K loop and Lower 4.5K loop groomed for skate. Classic lane was reset last night. Some thin spots on the hills and firm conditions throughout. Have a great weekend!
