Soldier Hollow
Happy Last Full Day of Winter! And what a winter it was – we are out grooming later this morning to insure a fabulous ski surface for you, so if you come early, please avoid ungroomed trails as they will be icy and chunky. Everything groomed is silky and phenomenal!
White Pine
Transitioning back to winter? Temperatures were cold overnight. Crunchy, granular crust conditions early will soften a bit with increasing temps mid day. Blue wax morning, violet from mid-day. Skating will be very exciting early, classic tracks are solid from late afternoon groom yesterday and softening through the day. Spring conditions mean crunchy in the morning and soft late afternoon. Find the sweet spot and enjoy. Watch for traffic updates from UDOT on I-80 as they try to move the elk herd. Canyon closed westbound beginning at 10am today.
Thank you everyone who came out to race and support the WCS race at the Farm yesterday. A beautiful day for a 20k!
Still have a few really nice poles and skis on sale. Don’t delay! We are waiting to hear from the Park CIty Council whether we will be able to stay open past March 31st. Stay tuned, maybe get ready to call your council person or mayor. Salt Lake’s Mayor approved extending the season at Mountain Dell and didn’t even require a SLC Council vote.
SR-65
Groomed to Big Mountain pass for skate and classic. It was unseasonably cold in the morning with few folks out. The boiler plate skate lane, even down low, couldn’t be penetrated significantly even using full teeth. However, it groomed nicely to the first switchback. Surprisingly, no snowmobiles or skiers and been to the pass since our last groom when we only made it to the first switchback. However, a large UTV with snow tracks started up the trail as we began to groom. The snow was so hard even down low than it left only superficial tracks. It left deep tracks in the fresh, untracked snow above the first switchback that we were not able to fill very well. I skied to the top after grooming. Super flat and fast to the first switchback, then a major grunt to the top, made more grunty by the UTV tracks. I was the only person to the top by 2 p.m. and then a few more skiers were out on the descent of the upper section. It finally warmed enough to bring out a fair number of folks and make the lower section slow and soft, but the base held firm. Unfortunately, two bozos (apologies to Bozo) on snowmobiles center punched the nice groom. The trail above the first switchback will be even grunty-er, but you’ll likely have the place to yourself, and the moose. Enjoy the biggest season ever in the canyon tomorrow before the next storm arrives.

Groomed Spruces and Jordan Pines this morning. Set classic track around Spruces. Very icy so in spots the classic track isn’t the best. 4 degrees this morning so its cold, but sun shiuld be out. Enjoy.

Looking like a second sunny day today! Temperatures were very cold overnight. Crunchy, icy crust conditions early should soften a bit by mid day. Blue wax day, violet glide for skate from mid-day. Skating will be very exciting, fast and icy early, classic tracks are solid and perhaps softening through the day. Surface is granular from the cold nights. Spring conditions are finally here. The means crunchy in the morning and soft late afternoon. Find the sweet spot and enjoy. Watch for water coming through the snow bridges on the dog loop.
THE FARM TRAIL WILL BE CLOSED TO PUBLIC SKIING SATURDAY MORNING FOR THE WCS RACE.
We are waiting for Park City Council’s permission to extend the season beyond Friday March 31st. Stay tuned. We may need your support in the political sphere again…
Mountain Dell
Groomed all trails except WorldCup Thursday night for skate. Conditions should be great, especially when it warms up a bit Friday morning. Classic track is good on most tracks but track too frozen last night to reset. Note, there is no classic track on Lower below Cullen’s Cutoff but it is well groomed for skating. Enjoy!!
Ruby’s Inn / Bryce Canyon
Good Morning! Our skiing season at Ruby’s is over for this winter. Time to get ready for the spring and summer adventures.
Jeremy Ranch
Good Morning,
The lower track has been groomed for skate and we reset the classic on all 4.5km. The upper track has only been groomed for skate. We will try to reset the classic once it soften ups later this afternoon. The snow conditions are going to be icy this morning and soften up throughout the day. It’s a beautiful sunny day on the trails!
Have a great day,
