Spruces

posted in: Grooming Reports, Spruces | 0

About an inch of new snow overnight. Rolled both the Upper and Lower Spruces Loops. Tree wells are becoming more pronounced, even after this weeks storm. We are approaching the end of our grooming season, with likely only a few weeks left.

White Pine

We had about 2 inches of wet snow last night and we’re looking at a blustery day with a chance of breezes and occasional showers We’ll have slowly warming temperatures through the day. We’re grooming the 3km and Armstrong surfaces today. The classic tracks will ski in well with the new snow, but might glaze through the day as more skiers glide through them. There are gaps in the tracks due to the thin coverage in places so don’t be afraid to step out if you see grass in front of you. Skiing should be good today with moderate air temperatures. The 3km, Practice Loop and Armstrong trails will be open again today. Trails will be firm for skating with some glaze developing in the tracks for classic. There are icy patches, grassy patches, exposed pavement and wet areas lurking under snow and near the trail so keep your eyes open, stay alert and ski safely.
Wax will be violet/red with structure today for both kick and glide. It will get sticky again today under the cloud cover, so polishing, spraying or dripping and ironing some fresh wax on the tips and tails of your skis will definitely improve your skiing Joy.
Please be cautious of any icy, muddy or wet patches near the trails, on any pavement and on walkways. Walk with care in your ski boots and use the handrail on the stairs. We continue to offer our “get outside and unplug” services daily. It will be a great afternoon to drop off your skis for a hot wax massage to keep you gliding or an enriching storage wax if you’re about done for the season. Grab a warm mug, layer for the changing weather, keep an eye out for bunnies, hawks and other wildlife, ski safe and be kind.

Welcome to the unofficial Community Center of Park CIty. This season is White Pine’s 47th on the Park City Golf Course and we’re proud of our 53 years as a locally owned and operated business in Park City. Shop Local, Ski Local. A proud part of the Jans family. Our partnership with Park City and the community runs deep. It is very rare to have such an incredible year-round community resource right here in town. We’ve been getting you into the outdoors for more than 50 years!

We knew it had to happen eventually… We will be closing for the season at 5:00pm on Thursday March 27th. It’s been a crazy season for weather, but we’ve managed to stay open for skiing all but two days since December 2nd. We’d like to thank each and every one of you who visited us this season. We have the best customers, friends and neighbors in our ski community and you are all truly the best part of the work for our nearly 50 Nordic Center employees. We spend the winter as a big family helping you learn new skills, taking care of your skis and providing you with some incredible ski trails. Thank you and we’ll plan on seeing you on November 22nd for the start of the 25-26 Winter Season!

Good Morning!!

We unfortunately have to close the trails for the rest of the season. We had too much snow melt yesterday exposing the bridges and cart paths. There isn’t much new snow on the horizon to help fill in where needed as well. The Jeremy Ranch Nordic Center would like to thank everyone who bought a day pass, punch pass and season passes throughout the season. There are other Nordic ski areas open, so if you’re still feeling up to skiing and need rentals we will still be able to provide those.

Our “Spring into the Nordic Golf Shop Sale” is running through March. Come in and enjoy 40% off all in stock Nordic items along with Golf apparel, hats and shoes.

Thank you for your continued support of the JR Nordic Center. We will pray for a much better and longer year of great snow for next season!

It’s the first day of Spring! A little breezy with a chance of blustery showers today. The magic 8 ball indicated that the outlook is good for both skate and classic today. We’ll have a second day of the rare combination of winter snow conditions in March. We’re lightly grooming the 3km and Armstrong skate surface today. No changes to yesterday’s good classic tracks. Skiing should be very good today with moderate air temperatures and cold snow all day. The 3km, Practice Loop and Armstrong trails will be open today. Trails will have a whole milk latte foam surface with the transformed snow. There are icy patches, grassy patches, exposed pavement and wet areas lurking under the new snow and near the trail so keep your eyes open, stay alert and ski safely.
The CLOSED ropes are still up and tied across the 5k, Dog Loop and Farm.
Wax will be violet/red with structure today for both kick and glide.

Please no walking, dogs, running, cycling, driving or trespassing on the trails. It will be a great afternoon to drop off your skis for a hot wax spa visit to keep you gliding or a storage wax if you’re about done for the season.

Good Morning!!

It’s a beautiful, bluebird start to the day. The grooming team was able to set classic and skate lanes on a 1 km loop near the parking area on the lower trail. It groomed up nicely and is skiing great!! The upper trail is now closed for the season. The forecast calls for lots of sunshine today and temps remaining in the mid to upper 30’s the next couple of days. Come on out and enjoy the skiing. Feel free to contact the Nordic Golf Shop with any questions.

Our “Spring into the Nordic Golf Shop Sale” is running through March. Come in and enjoy 40% off all in stock Nordic items along with Golf apparel, hats and shoes.

A beautiful bluebird day coming on! We’ll have the rare combination of winter snow conditions in mid-March today. We received about 4 inches of new snow once yesterday’s wind settled and the snow fell vertically for a few hours. We’ll groom the 3km and Armstrong trails today and reset classic track. The trail below the new snow is in solid shape so skiing should be very good today. The 3km, Practice Loop and Armstrong trails will be open today. Trails will have smooth soft surface with the colder temperatures. Air temperatures will rise to above freezing and the snow will stay cold, so skiing will be consistent all day. There are icy patches, grassy patches, exposed pavement and wet areas lurking under the new snow and near the trail so keep your eyes open, stay alert and ski safely.
The CLOSED ropes are still up and wrapped around the 5k, Dog Loop and Farm. Wax will be blue/violet with structure today for both kick and glide. Polishing, spraying or dripping some fresh wax on the tips and tails of your equipment will improve your glide and your skiing pleasure.
Please be cautious of any icy or wet patches near the trails, on any pavement and on walkways. Walk with care in your ski boots and use the handrail on the stairs. Please no walking, dogs, running, cycling, driving or trespassing on the trails. If you need to take a therapeutic physical and/or mental getaway or a much needed break from the daily news cycle we’re here for you. It will be a great afternoon to drop off your skis for a hot wax spa treatment to keep you gliding or even a storage wax if you’re about done for the season.
Grab a steamy mug, bundle up for the cold morning, venture out with your SPF30, keep an eye out for bunnies and other wildlife, ski safe and be kind.
