White Pine

Happy Holidays from all of us at White Pine Touring Nordic Center. We will be open from 10am to 3pm today.

CLOCKWISE SKIING TODAY ON THE 3km “Community Loop”. THIS MEANS GOING TO THE LEFT AS YOU ENTER THE TRAIL. We have changed to directional travel to reduce potential conflicts on the narrow sections of trail. Please ski with Joy, kindness and make room for everyone. A light dusting of snow on the trails overnight and early today. It’s not a lot, but every flake helps our holiday dreams come true. Mercifully cooler temperatures will keep the track surface quite nice today but remember it is a firm and icy track under the fresh snow. If you like it a little less exciting, skiing will be a bit softer on the trail as the day progresses. Expect a slower wintery surface today with your blue wax glide. Just a touch up groom later in the day as conditions require, but we’ll let the fresh sit on top in order to save snow depth. Best skiing will be with your family and friends from 10:00 to about 2 pm again today.

The 5 km “Pond Loop” remains closed. Be very aware of thin spots and cart paths and big surface gaps if you venture out. The 5km side is only for the intrepid and rock skis. You must have a trail pass purchased and displayed to access our trails. Everyone please ski clockwise and share the trail with happiness, Joy and good spirits as you finish unwrapping your packages, have just one more holiday treat and head outside. Smile, greet the hardworking staff and your fellow skiers and keep an eye out for snow bunnies and patches of grass along the edge. Thank you for being part of our amazing community! Ski safe and enjoy the holiday!

The gift of a ski lesson is always the right size and lasts a lifetime. Stop in, say “Hi” and share the season!

The Lake Flat Loop was freshly groomed this morning. Both skate and classic tracks set on our loop and squiggles inside of the loop. We still have a 40% discount for limited terrain. Great conditions! Come on up and get some skiing in.

Soldier Hollow

About 4k of skiing at soldier hollow with 3k of set classic track. They are close to closing a larger true loop of skiing from pony express down to the sprint loop. Hopefully another cold night or two will do the trick. Great skiing continues, if on less distance than we would like. Could be busy in the 9-11 hour with holiday morning team soho practices.

COUNTER CLOCKWISE SKIING TODAY ON THE 3km “Community Loop”. THIS MEANS GOIING TO THE RIGHT AS YOU ENTER THE TRAIL. We have changed to directional travel to reduce potential conflicts on the narrow sections of trail. Please ski with kindness and make room for everyone. We’ve shoveled tons of snow on the 3k loop over the last five days to help us stay open through Christmas. More of that hard work today, so be sure to stop and thank the people who are working to keep you skiing. You could even stop and help for a few minutes to spread the Joyful holiday glow. Just a touch up groom this morning in order to save snow depth. The surface this morning is good and the very short period of cold overnight and the light mist was helpful. The surface will be fast this morning and will be softening through the day. Best skiing will be from 9:30 to about 1 pm again today on red or purple wax. Please ski early if you are able to. The counterclockwise gliding will be quite good today if your skis are waxed and ready. The 5 km “Pond Loop” remains closed. Be very aware of thin spots and cart paths and big surface gaps if you venture out. The 5km side is only for the intrepid and rock skis. The penalty for catching an edge on the cart path is high.

Our shop and trail hours are 9am to 5pm daily. 9-3 Christmas eve and 10-3 Christmas Day.

You must have a trail pass purchased and displayed to access our trails. Everyone please ski counterclockwise and share the trail with happiness, Joy and good spirits.

Ski safe and enjoy the holiday spirit even if the weather is a little grinchy!

Solitude Nordic

Our Lake Flat trail is groomed for both classic and Skate. Squiggles inside of the loop have been added, but do not have a classic track yet. We are still waiting on more snow to be able to open more terrain. Because of the limited terrain we have a 40% discount on Nordic Trail Tickets and Rentals!

Soldier Hollow

Ski Trail Conditions:  We have a pristine 3k lap made from our artificial snow, starting in the stadium, and going all the way up the lower Hollow, out for a length on Pony Express, and then back down and over the Bridge of Flags to a turnaround point just beyond. We are impeccably groomed for skate and classic, with set track on either side.  We have an additional 1k groomed on natural snow on the shady side of the upper hollow; be careful at the transition point between natural and artificial!

Weather and Conditions: It is currently 27F and clear skies.  NWS is calling for a 30% chance of rain later in the day and a high of 49F.  Snowmaking is ongoing whenever the temperatures are below freezing.  Freezing nights are keeping the snow great in the mornings and low sun angles are keeping it from getting too soft later.

Spruces

Spruces was groomed in the early morning today with the exception of Jordan Pines. More snow is needed before we are able to groom over there and recently there just hasn’t been any. Fortunately, the forecast calls for some snow over the holidays and hopefully you’ll come back from celebrating to a groomed Jordan Pines. Today the classic still looked good and the post groomed trials even better, so get out there and enjoy the nice weather.

Ski Local, Shop Local, but we did check online to see if we could get a little holiday dusting to arrive after the weekend. Fingers crossed for no shipping delays.

It should be the last of the truly warm spell today. We shoveled a ton of snow on the 3k loop yesterday to help insure we stay open through Christmas.

‘Twas just days before Christmas and all through the land, the skiers were nervous, the forecast was bland. Our hopes remain high and the track remains white, the 3k is touched up and skiing quite nice.
