Today’s Haiku: “Single digit start, Blue sky sunshine and smooth glide, Sweet like honey day.”

Very cold on the trails before sunrise this morning. We’re looking at a bright sunny day with temperatures rising with the midday sun. We regroomed the 3km, dog loop and Farm trails last night with our new snowcat and left the rest since they were beautifully groomed Sunday evening. All 22km of trails are open for skiing today with classic and skate tracks. Enjoy a warm mug before you head out. We’ll have a squeaky surface to start your day. You’ll glide best with green wax early, then blue wax and cold powder again today. Grip wax will be polar early, then green today with slightly warming air temperatures in the afternoon. The dog loop is open and running enthusiastically through the field. Be sure to cover those paws again this morning. The Farm 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. Skin skis are a fantastic no-fuss classic option if hard wax isn’t your cuppa.

Bring your loved ones, friends and neighbors along to play in the snow and if you need to take a Sundance “physical and/or mental therapy” break we’ve got a trail and accessible parking 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 trail with everyone and pole powerfully along the smooth surfaces! Thank you for being part of our amazing ski family and enjoying long-form trail reports. Grab that beanie, your buff, your good gloves, sunglasses, and snug up your laces. Click into your bindings and come play outside!

The rescheduled Wasatch Citizens Series 10km Classic will be held at the Farm on Saturday February 1st. Please note the early 9:00am start for the kids, ~9:20 start for adults. Parking will be limited due to a church function mid-day so carpool, drop-off or shuttle from the Meadows Drive or Farm trailhead parking lots. This is the rescheduled race from December. Deadline for registration is 11:59 pm on Thursday January 30th. Register at www.utahnordic.org The Farm trail will be closed to public skiing from Friday afternoon for race grooming until mid-day Saturday. Please respect the closure.

0 degrees F on the trails before sunrise this morning. We’re looking at a bright sunny day with temperatures rising with the midday sun. There’s no way the tulips are even thinking of poking up yet. Cold snow and fresh corduroy on top will make a great combination for your ski day. We regroomed the 3km and 5km trails last night with our new snowcat and left the rest since they were groomed Saturday afternoon. All 22km of trails are open for skiing today. Enjoy a warm mug before you head out with your boot covers, mittens, beanie and buff. We have miles of fresh classic track and skate lanes this morning with a squeaky surface to start your day. You’ll glide best with green wax early, then blue wax and iron-in cold powder again today. Grip wax will be polar early, then green today with slightly warming air temperatures in the afternoon. The dog loop is open and running enthusiastically through the field. Be sure to cover those paws this morning. The Farm 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. Classic skiing will be exceptionally good today and skate will be a slow if you’re not waxed, and getting faster as the day goes on. 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. Skin skis are a fantastic no-fuss classic option if hard wax isn’t your shot of espresso.

A special thank you to Prinoth for delivering a shiny new Husky Snowcat for us to use this winter. If you enjoy what we’re providing, be sure to tell your local city officials how great it is to have such an incredible long-term community partnership between PC and White Pine Touring. We’ve been making trails on the golf course and beyond for 47 years. We’d like that to continue and your support is becoming even more important.
