All trails groomed this morning. Classic tracks set everywhere expect the Redman loops. 6″ of new snow since yesterday, so trails will be quite soft for skating. 29° at 8am, high of 34° with light snow and wind throughout the day.
White Pine
31 degrees and 3 inches of fresh snow this morning. All 20km are open, it will be soft and slow this morning with the fresh and wet snow. It snowed most of the day yesterday. We were just high enough in elevation to be in the snow band. It was raining not far away. The snow bunnies should be happy today in the fresh snow. We’ll be doing a roller pack and light touch grooming for skate and classic today. Classic will be good today. Conditions will be staying slow and soft through most of the day with the fresh snow. Watch for a couple of icy areas from all the moisture that has been in the snow from last week. Skiing should be pretty good all day for skate and classic. Stay flexible, aware and ski with Joy!
The 5km, 3km and Armstrong loops will be groomed first today. The Farm and Dog Loop will be rolled and packed to compress the surface but not track set after the core trails are finished. If you go out to the Farm, ski with care and enjoy the arrival of winter. The trails will be soft and it will be quite a workout.
Please purchase your pass and wear it. Watch for elk on the Farm. Red/purple wax and structure today. Please continue to be aware, careful and ski within your abilities. 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 helps! Come play in the snow, share the adventure, say Hello on the trail and enjoy what should be a very nice ski day!
Saturday’s Wasatch Citizens Series Classic race will be held at the Farm at White Pine Touring Nordic Center. Parking is available at St’ Mary’s Church, Meadows Drive and the Farm Trailhead across the highway (walk through the tunnel to get to the trails for the race) The social hall and indoor restrooms will not be available for warming and registration this week because of a prior reservation at the church. They are accommodating us on short notice and be sure to give them a huge thank you for being so supportive of the ski community. Bib pick up and portapotties will be in the parking lot of the church Saturday morning beginning at 8:30 am.
Mountain Dell
Grooming is on hold at Mtn Dell as we go through another dose of rain and warm temperatures. With some luck we will be back at it Thursday.
Fairview
Returned to a few inches of new snow on the track after what looks like some warm weather with rain. Track was groomed this morning for both skate and classic though there are some thin and bare spots in a couple places especially for classic. Otherwise good conditions.

Good Morning,
Here comes the weather! The lower track is only open for 1.1km of skate and classic we had to close down the rest of the track until we receive more snow. The upper track is groomed for skate. There are some bare areas on the upper track that have been marked with cones so please be cautious while skiing. Along with a few icy spots that will begin to soften as temperatures rise through out the day.
Have a Great Day!

The Farm was really good yesterday and we may just let it sit on the surface to make the skating nice. Ski the Farm with care and enjoy the arrival of winter. Please purchase your pass and wear it.

All trails groomed for skate and classic. 28° at 8am, high of 32° with light snow and wind today.
Mountain Dell
Main loop groomed skate only Sunday evening. All other loops do not currently have sufficient coverage for regrooming. Classic track also not reset due to the thin conditions. Overall in decent condition although the base ice layer is exposed in some sections – ski with caution.
Jeremy Ranch
Good Morning,
We received less than an inch of fresh snow overnight. The lower track is only open for 1.1km of skate and classic we had to close down the rest of the track until we receive more snow. The upper track is groomed for skate and the classic is thin. There are some bare areas on the upper track that have been marked with cones so please be cautious while skiing. Snow is in the forecast for this week, so fingers crossed we receive enough throughout the week to reopen more kilometers of trails.
Enjoy the bluebird day!!

A sunny bluebird day coming up. 15 degrees at 7 am with a couple of inches of fresh snow overnight. Yesterday was cold and breezy but today it should be much calmer. The snow bunnies will be happier today hiding by the trails. We’re still doing snow-saving grooming and resetting classic tracks on all 20km! Classic will be good today. Conditions will be staying firm through the day after the chilly night. Watch for a couple of chunky or icy areas from all the moisture that was in the snow from Thursday and Friday. Skiing should be good all day for skate and classic. Stay flexible, aware and ski with Joy! The 5km, 3km and Armstrong loops will be maintenance groomed first today with classic set. The Farm and Dog Loop will be groomed right after. Ski the Farm with care, it was a bit chunky in a few places from the wet storm this week and then drifted a bit out there yesterday with a few spots thinned by the wind. Please purchase your pass and wear it. Watch for elk on the Farm. Come share the Joy of skiing! Red/purple wax and structure today. Please continue to be aware, careful and ski within your abilities. Ride the bus, micro transit, carpool, skateboard, cycle, e-bike or walk if you can.
