Soldier Hollow
Open for season holders 3.5K conditons are splendid for spring.
Spruces
Spruces was groomed Sunday morning by TUNA. Fresh corduroy on all Upper Loops and most of Lower. Skate should be quite worthwhile on Upper, OK on Lower. No classic yet, but it should be a snowy week, so we’ll see. Enjoy!
Solitude Nordic
Good morning! At 0745 it is 18°F/-7°C. All trails groomed for classic and skate skiing. Beautiful skiing!
Spruces
Saturday at noon we just put down some limited corduroy. Upper Loop only. Watch for more grooming throughout next week’s storm cycle.
Spruces
Rough week for the ski track. Due to the warm weather, we are starting to see pavement in a few spots, especially in the Lower Spruces Loop. Tried dragging the single track this morning, but it didn’t seem to be helping much. Hopefully, some of the projected snow can give us enough of a lift to get through the next couple of weeks.

It had to happen eventually… We will be closing for the season at 5:00pm today. It’s been a crazy season for weather, but we’ve managed to stay open for skiing all but two days since December 2nd. We’d like to thank each and every one of you who visited us this season. We have the best customers, friends and neighbors in our ski community and you are all truly the best part of the work for our nearly 50 Nordic Center employees. We spend the winter as a big family helping you learn new skills, taking care of your skis and providing you with some incredible ski trails. Thank you for spending the winter with us and we’ll plan on being back and seeing you on November 22nd for the start of the 25-26 Winter Season!
That’s a wrap folks. Today we draw a close to our 47th continuous year of making magic on the Park City golf course. No need to moan. Embrace the Joy that we managed to have skiing 113 days of a 115 day season in the most challenging weather possible. We can’t sugar coat the impact of three days of 70 degree temperatures and weeks of warm weather. There is still a bit of snow out there, but there is a great deal of water, ice, grass and mud too. The 3km and Armstrong have patches of okay skiing, but it might be best to consider a bike ride or a walk today. Best skiing will be at higher elevations for the next several weeks. There are icy patches, grassy patches, running water, exposed pavement and wet areas lurking under snow and along the trail so keep your eyes open, stay alert and ski safely if you feel brave enough to venture out on the remaining meters. We continue to offer our “go outside to play” services all year at our Bonanza Drive store. Snowshoe rentals and tours will be available at our year round store on Bonanza Drive through mid April. Grab your SPF30+, your sunglasses, your beachwear for the tropical heat wave, keep an eye out basking bunnies and ducks, be safe and be kind. Enjoy the irony that it will cool off and snow this weekend. Thank you for being part of our incredible community and for coming out to play with us all season long. Drop in the store to say hello, shop the last day of our sale and visit for a bit before we close this afternoon. Everyone be safe and grab some winter-ish fun while you can!
Solitude Nordic
All trails groomed for skate and classic. 42° at 8am, high of 56°.
From here on out, skiing will be most excellent in the mornings, but sloppy after noon. We are expecting to stay open until at least April 13!
Soldier Hollow
Open to season passholders only now until the trails all melt. Absolutely fabulous fast fun skate skiing here today! Open trails in great shape – come enjoy before it all turns to goop!

If it’s time for your summer storage wax, bring in your skis today. We’ll put some good wax on your bases for summer protection and scrape them for free when we reopen in November. Last chance to drop them off is this afternoon!
The melt cycle is in full swing. We’ll have warming temperatures through the day and have another afternoon above 60 degrees again. Crusty and very icy conditions early then turning to mashed potato by mid-day. We are not grooming today in order to preserve the snow that is remaining and protect the grass below. The 3km trail has several areas where route finding and grass walking are required. There are some pretty good out and back options for the 3k and Armstrong that avoid most of the non-continuous sections. Where it is good it is very good, but the trail has several gaps that are not skiable now. Best skiing will be from about 10:30 until 1. It will get quite sloppy out and skating will leave deep ruts and risk damaging your skis. We recommend classic skiing late in the day. If you see grass, pavement or mud in front of you, it is not fake news. Please slow down and work your way safely around.
Skiing will be icy, crunchy and firm early, but quickly transforming into tropical slurpee consistency. The 3km and Armstrong trails will be open today. There are icy patches, grassy patches, running water, exposed pavement and wet areas lurking under snow and along the trail so keep your eyes open, stay alert and ski safely. Wax will be red/yellow with aggressive wet structure for both kick and glide. Polishing, spraying, dripping and ironing some fresh wax on the tips and tails of your equipment will definitely help bring more Joy to your gliding experience. Walk with care in your ski boots and use the handrail on the stairs.
We continue to offer our “go outside to play” services daily through tomorrow. You have until this afternoon to drop off your skis for a hot wax spa session to keep you gliding or an enriching storage wax if you’re done for the season. Grab your SPF30+, your sunglasses, your beachwear for the tropical heat wave, keep an eye out basking bunnies and ducks, ski safe and be kind. Thank you for being part of our incredible community center and for coming out to play with us during this wacky “spring skiing all winter” season. Drop in the store to say hello, shop the sale and visit for a bit before we close tomorrow. Everyone ski safe and grab some winter-ish fun while you can!
