All current loops (Main, Mitten, Boomerang, Wiggle Room, Lollipop-top, and Kid’s Cutoff) groomed Monday morning skate and classic. Coverage is excellent with only one significant icy portion on Lollipop. Snow remains soft, should be good skiing today.

Winter is back, at least for the time being. An inch or two fell overnight and temps dropped. The base is for the most part still in tact, having weathered the warmth of the last week. So I made two passes around all trails this morning, including setting a new classic track. It may be soft underneath so the colder our nights are, the better it will set up. Not sure how much longer we can use it and enjoy it, but this week looks better than last. Try skiing early if you can as it should be firmer then.

Good Morning, the Upper Track is still closed for the time being. We have reopened the Lower Track after some good snow overnight. The Lower Track has been set for classic and groomed for skate and is looking good! Have a great Sunday!
Spruces
Wow, lots of new snow at Spruces! I packed and rolled Spruces and Jordan Pines this morning. Snowing when I finished, if you come up it will likely be fresh snow on top of the groom.
Solitude Nordic
23°F/-5°C at 0815. ~7″ new snow. All trails groomed for classic and skating. To keep it short, it is beautiful!!

ANNNND, Winter is back! We’ll be grooming everything today. Over 6″ of fresh powdery snow so far. It’ll take a minute to get to the Farm, but skiing should be fantastic all day with some new classic tracks and fresh snow to cover up we can only describe as late spring conditions. Beautiful day for classic as light snow is expected to continue through the day. Come out and enjoy! It’s the most snow we’ve had in one storm this calendar year. Be aware of the wet surface underneath the fresh snow and watch for slick spots. We still recommend wearing a mask while indoors at the Nordic Center. Stay healthy and drive safe everyone! (or take the bus. It’s free)

Track Conditions
Good Morning, both tracks are closed for the time being until we receive a few more inches of snow. We appreciate your patience through this low snow year. We will reevaluate after hopefully a few inches tonight! Thank you for your support of the Jeremy Ranch Nordic Center! Have a great weekend!
Solitude Nordic
30°F/-1.1°C at 0700. ~1″ overnight. Grooming on hold today. The new snow and approaching weather systems will help us a lot.
Deer Hollow Winter Recreation Area
All of the XC Trails were groomed with the big SnoCat Groomer, and tracks were set on most.
The snowshoe trails were groomed with the BearCat snowmobile and small YTS Groomer, and, for special treatment, were also given a pass with the big SnoCat!
Spruces
Spruces and Jordan Pines groomed today. No classic track set. Slushy conditions. Can still go around all loops on snow, two thin spots on north side of lower and upper loop, but good coverage everywhere else. Trail to Jordan Pines is very thin as well. New snow tomorrow will help.
Solitude Nordic
Skate and classic groomed today, though I would suggest skating today due to low quality classic tracks. Another warm day with a high of 36 so plan accordingly.

Track Conditions
The lower track has been groomed for skate and the classic lane is thinning but holding in most areas. The upper track is closed due to lack of snow on certain portions of the trail. With the snowfall coming this weekend, we will look to reopen the upper track if snow levels allow. Ski with high caution as there are some icy areas on the lower track. We may close the lower track in the afternoon and await further snow as well. Have a great day!!
White Pine
Well, our first 24hr melt cycle.. Standing water and ice patches on all trails. Big ponds on the Farm. Dirt and pollution are bubbling to the surface. Let’s hope for a refresh later today and some colder temps. 44 degrees with rain coming at 7:30 am. It is what it is today. slushy conditions, wet conditions. Skiing will be pretty good if your structure is on point but keep your eyes forward and watch where you are going. unmarked hazards, some exposed cart paths and grass, dirt from the golf course operations… definitely a day to practice your adventure skills. Ski safe.
Spruces
All trails in Spruces groomed this morning for skate and classic. Have fun!
