Closing Day Sunday Haiku:
Closing day is nigh,
Locking up, filling the box,
Sending you our thanks!
THE SHOP IS CLOSING FOR THE SEASON TODAY at 5:00pm and our 40% off Sale ends then. ALL SKI TRAILS ARE CLOSED FOR THE SEASON. We managed 38 days of great skiing between heat waves and rain this season. Our deepest gratitude goes out to all of you for your support in this incredibly difficult “winter” season. You are the greatest community of friends, extended family and customers that anyone could ever ask for. The snow bunnies have storage waxed their skis and are picking up their bikes tuned at our Bonanza Dr. store (where the sale goes on) for next week’s predicted record heat. The daily Haiku may continue for a bit due to popular demand.
Solitude Nordic
Good morning nordic skiers! At 0745 it is a chilly 13°F with a small accumulation of graupel overnight. All trails groomed for classic and skate skiing. Excellent conditions continue up here!
Spruces
Good morning Spruces skiers. I groomed the Upper Loops this morning very thoroughly. There is still plenty of snow to ski all around Milt’s Loops as well as the Practice and Pavilion Loops. I also set classic, which is good in some spots and marginal in others. This could be our last weekend of grooming, as temperatures are very hot next week. Please come out and enjoy your National Forest.
Soldier Hollow
We have the NCAA 20 km skate races this morning, starting with the women’s at 9 am and men’s following at 10:30 am. We will then be open to the public until 4:30 pm. Come cheer on your favorite teams and then go for a ski!
Solitude Nordic
Good morning! At 0755 it is 32°F. All trails groomed for skate and classic skiing. Fully transformed snow on the majority of the trails. Fast skiing until it warms up and gets soft.

Saturday Haiku:
Last call for the shop,
The Glides of March are on us,
Season close Sunday.
THE SHOP IS CLOSING FOR THE SEASON SUNDAY at 5:00pm and our 40% off Sale ends then. Last call today for storage wax or a spring wax before we close. ALL SKI TRAILS ARE CLOSED FOR THE SEASON. The shop is OPEN 9-5 daily offering deeply discounted gear sales, waxing and STORAGE WAXING service. Our deepest gratitude goes out to all of you for your support in this incredibly difficult “winterish” season. You are the greatest community of friends, extended family and customers that anyone could ever ask for. The snow bunnies have storage waxed their skis and are getting their bikes tuned at our Bonanza Dr. store for next week’s predicted record heat.
Spruces
Spruces skied quite nicely between about 10:30a and 12:30p Friday. It was scary firm before 10a. Note that the overnight low was 42. The track locks up hard in temperatures well above 32. I was striding on klister right down the middle of the track. The skating was fast and predictable during that time. Forest Service is planning to groom Saturday morning, which will make the skiing even better. Tomorrow’s forecast for strong winds and heavy cloud cover should keep the track skiing nicely all day Saturday. Sunday and Monday should be a good surface as well, but watch the forecast and hit that window where it is soft but not too soft. Based on current forecast, for Monday I would expect that to be between 11a and 2p. Go ski!
Soldier Hollow
It is a sunny springy afternoon here at SoHo. Come enjoy some soft slushy conditions this afternoon from 12-4:30 today or 12:30-4:30 tomorrow! Or arrive earlier tomorrow to cheer on racers during the NCAA Championships! Races begin at 8:30 and 10:15 tomorrow morning.
Solitude Nordic
Good morning! At 0800 it is 37°F. All trails groomed for classic and skate skiing. Fast, abrasive snow until it wams up. Twisted Klister.
