TODAY is the last day to drop off your skis for a Boulder Mountain Tour Race wax before you go to Sun Valley. Get them in soon!

Today’s Haiku: “Gliding open fields, tracks of a white rabbit cross, Silent snow whispers.” Cold on the trails before sunrise again this morning. We’re looking at a bright sunny day with temperatures rising with the midday sun. We regroomed the 5km this morning with our new snowcat and left the rest since they are in such great skiing shape. All 22km of trails are open for skiing today with classic and skate tracks. We’ll have a squeaky surface to start your day. You’ll glide best with green wax early, then blue wax from mid-morning. Grip wax will be green going to blue today with slightly warming air temperatures in the afternoon. The dog loop is open and running enthusiastically through the fields. The Farm is in fantastic shape and is a fee area for skiing. No walking, dogs, running, cycling or trespassing on the trails. Park in the new Meadows Drive trailhead lot or better yet, ski the entire 15km loop from the Nordic Center. A good universal liquid or paste wax on your fish scale classic skis (tip to tail) is always a great way to keep them from sticking as the snow changes during the day. Skin skis are a fantastic no-fuss classic option if hard wax isn’t your cuppa. Bring your friends and neighbors along to play on the snow and if you need to take a physical and/or mental therapy break we’ve got a trail for you. Drop off your skis when you’re finished for a rejuvenating overnight spa treatment. Please purchase AND display your trail pass to access our trails. Glide with Joy, share the trails, be kind and move gracefully along the surfaces! Thank you for being part of our amazing ski family and enjoying long-form trail poetry. Grab that beanie, your buff, your good gloves, sunglasses, and snug up your laces and come play outside!
