It’s a lovely mostly sunny morning here at Soldier Hollow. After 2 days with race closures we are back to normal operating hours from 8:30am to 4:30pm every day. Expect icy conditions early this morning with trails softening to mashed potatoes by the afternoon. Please note that we will be hosting NCAA championships March 11th-14th and there will be course closures again during those days.

Got out and groomed this morning. Rain and warming temperatures are starting to have an effect on the ski track. There are some thin icy spots and pavement is showing on the Lower Loop. The Jordan Pines Connector is pretty thin and we decided not to go over it today. Still managed to groom all of the Upper and Lower Loops and classic is still set from before. Sushi Scale: Oshinko Maki.

With heavy hearts, Gregg, Wally and I pulled the rebar out of the ground on the golf course this morning. The season was over before it even started in 2025-2026. Currently 58˚ and sunny. Wishing everyone a great off season and we will try again in nine months!
