Mountain Dell

Mountain Dell was groomed for skate only Wednesday night. Unfortunately the current snow conditions are not allowing us to set a consistent classic track on the remaining snow we have. Hopefully this weekend’s storm delivers some help with that.

Main, Mitten, Boomerang and the Lollitop were groomed for skate. Lollipop stick was closed due to low snow and Park Road Bypass will require a short detour to go around a large bare spot.

Have a great day out there.

Condition did not allow us to reset the Classic lanes. Temperatures were hovering around 11 degrees. Skiing should be good for skate skiing today on all open trails, except Park Ave. where grass is starting to show. Be aware of the icy patched on Main and Lolli-Top.

Good Morning,

What a perfect morning! The sun is out and both the upper and lower track have been groomed for skate. The classic tracks were reset on both the upper and lower track. Conditions are firm and fast, but will soften through out the day with the sunshine and temperatures getting above 36 degrees.

Have a great day!

Crispy cold morning (3 degrees at the shop, 0 degrees at the Farm) leading in to a beautiful sunny winter day! Heading for a high temperature near 40 degrees today but the track should stay pretty nice through the afternoon after the very cold and clear overnight. We groomed everything at the end of the storm , but there was still a fair amount of wind to drift in areas. All trails open and will be groomed today. We did not groom near the church yesterday due to the moose that was wandering around being harassed for photos all day. We gave it a lot of room but the crazy people chasing after it for photos kept it moving and a bit agitated all day. Please do not harass the wildlife. We’ll be grooming the barn side of the farm this morning and then see how the wildlife situation goes. Fresh packed squeaky cold snow for classic and skate today. Watch for some icy, sticky or drifty patches due to the wind. Ski with awareness. The 3k and 5k will be ready first, the Dog Loop, Farm and Armstrong will be groomed next. Blue wax today and classic should be quite good.

Be aware of icy sidewalks, winter walking conditions and use the handrails on the stairs. Please drive safely, walk with care in your ski boots and ski with Joy! Purchase your pass and wear it please. Be aware, be careful and ski within your abilities. PLEASE ride the bus, micro transit, carpool, skateboard, cycle, e-bike or walk if you can. Parking is available all around the hotel and underground but everything you can do to reduce single driver trips and park smart helps! Come play in the snow, drop in the shop to say hi, visit the ducks, look for snow bunnies and have a wintery and Joy-filled ski day!

If you’ve read this far, Thank you! We also have an in-store special starting today. All remaining nordic ski boots are 30% off marked price. Selection is limited to stock on hand, no special orders. We also just received a new small order of fish-scale touring skis including a few partial metal edge Rossignols. The skis are not on sale, but if you hurry, we have your size in stock again.

Track was groomed yesterday afternoon. Major moonscape on the golf course after the storm and lots of wind. I gave up on the lower loop as there are too many short stretches with minimal coverage and no way to add snow to them. The upper loop (3 miles) has good coverage with one short exception and the grooming produced a good skate lane. No classic track- sorry. But the base is thinning and as of yesterday it would be hard to penetrate. Morning temperatures are about 10˚ F so good skiing (skating) for now.

A few inches of fresh snow overnight, with some more on the way. Still got out there this morning and groomed the Spruces loops and Jordan Pines. No classic track set with more snow on the way. Conditions are still pretty good. On the sushi scale: Rainbow Roll

Track was groomed Monday morning and made for good skating until late morning. Then it was softening and warming fast. Fairview received a bit of snow Monday night and temps are colder. I just went to the ski trails to groom the new snow but it is very windy and the new snow is blowing around and drifting. New skate and classic tracks would be blown in so I will wait until later this afternoon and hope there is enough new snow to groom up nicely and give us some more days of skiing.

Mountain Dell

Groomed about 2-3” of new snow this morning. With the new snow, skiing should be good.. Open and groomed trails are main, mitten, park cutoff, Lolli pop, and boomerang. We reset classic and skate on all open trails. Happy skiing.

Good Morning!!

Winter is back!! About 4 inches of new snow has fallen and it brought with a wind with a bite to it. The Upper and Lower tracks are groomed for skate and the crew was able reset new classic lanes on both trails. Conditions are good with firm snow underneath the new that fell overnight. The wind could be a factor throughout the day so be cautious of wind blown areas. Colder temps should allow the trails to hold well.

Enjoy the day!!

All trails groomed for skate and classic this morning. 8″ of new snow overnight so the track is a bit soft. Lightly snowing and quite windy now, expecting about 5″ of new snow throughout the day. 9° at 8am, high of 21° today.

White Pine

About 4 inches of fresh snow and still light snow and windy at 7:30. A fair amount of wind drifting and on trail and especially at the Farm. Good snow overnight, but grooming will be a little delayed due to the wind. We’ll focus first on the 5k and 3k trails and get them open by about 9:30. We’ll take a look at the Farm when the wind dies down a bit. Much colder temperatures today will feel a lot like winter is back. Fresh packed cold snow and soft conditions for classic and skate today. Watch for some icy or drifty patches due to the wind. It should be much nicer after noon when the snow and breeze are predicted to ease up. Ski with awareness. The 3k and 5k will be ready first, the Dog Loop, Farm and Armstrong will be groomed next. Blue wax today and classic should be quite good. Be aware of winter walking conditions and use the handrails on the stairs. Please drive safely, walk with care in your ski boots and ski with Joy! Purchase your pass and wear it please. Continue to be aware, be careful and ski within your abilities. PLEASE ride the bus, micro transit, carpool, skateboard, cycle, e-bike or walk if you can. Parking is available all around the hotel and underground but everything you can do to reduce single driver trips and park smart helps! Come play in the snow, drop in the shop to say hi, visit the geese and have a wintery and Joy filled ski day!

Good Morning,

The sun keeps shining! The upper and lower track has been groomed for skate. Classic lanes on both tracks are holding up well. The conditions will be firm and fast this morning due to cold overnight temperatures. As it begins to warm up through out the day, the track will begin to soften up. Bring on the snow!!

Have a great day!
