Happy Monday!!

We have groomed a 0.5km lower loop on hole #6 next to the trailhead and it is in good shape for both skate and classic. The team did have to throw some snow on a couple of extremely thin areas. Unfortunately, the rest of the lower trail is not skiable at this time due to lack of snow on our connection bridges. Our upper 0.8km trail is also groomed for both skate and classic. There are a couple of cones out on the trail marking thin areas so please be alert and ski with caution.

Day passes will be $10 for the rest of the season!

We currently have a “Glide Into the Nordic Golf Shop Sale” on all of our Nordic apparel and equipment. The Nordic Golf Shop is stocked with ski equipment from Atomic and Salomon, and Nordic apparel from Kjus, Rossignol and Odlo.

Have a great day and enjoy the beautiful sunshine!!

Thanks for your support of the Jeremy Ranch Nordic Center!

Monday Haiku:
Winter Spring returns,
Wax up and ski while it’s here,
Feel the trail Joy

It is going to be a beautiful, warm nordic ski day on our ~10km of open trails! Starting out at 18F this morning with sunshine and warming through the day. We groomed the 3k “Community Loop”, the 5km loop and Armstrong late last night. The crew did not reset the classic track due to snow depth. The classic tracks are quite good with a few obvious gaps. The classic may be a bit icy early in places where the sun hit it hard yesterday but will soften up mid morning. Skate is locked in very good shape this morning with a soft crumble on the firm track. There are a few thin spots out there so ski with awareness and avoid the grassy spots.

It’s another blue/purple wax, SPF 50, fresh groomed day at White Pine Touring. Skiing might become quite soft by late afternoon today. Please stay off the golf course and other trails unless you’re on skis. Help us remind walkers and dog walkers that there are great options nearby like Round Valley, Basin Rec and Willow Creek rather than tracking through the fresh grooming. The Farm Trail and Dog Loop remain CLOSED. Red beanies are recommended and be cautious, it is icy out on the sidewalks and pathways.
The shop and trails are OPEN 9-5 today offering lessons, trail passes, gear sales, waxing service, rental skis and snowshoes. Drop off your skis for a spa treatment after you wrap up for the day. Join us for interpretive snow dances, offerings to Ullr, and happy snow bunnies at the end of the day.

Please do not walk, cycle or run on the Nordic Trails. Please do not walk your dogs and let them poop on the nordic trails. We work very hard to provide a quality ski experience for our paying customers and walking yourself and your dogs on the trails could be considered trespassing and violates municipal code. Round Valley, Willow Creek and Basin trails all offer exceptional options for taking your dog, yourself or your bicycle out.

Its a bluebird Sunday!!

We have groomed a 0.5km lower loop on hole #6 next to the trailhead and it is in great shape for both skate and classic. Unfortunately, the rest of the lower trail is not skiable at this time due to lack of snow on our connection bridges. We still would need a few more inches to get the entire lower trail open. The team has completed grooming our upper 0.8km trail and it is also in great shape for both skate and classic.

Day passes will be $10 for the rest of the season!

Mountain Dell

Main, Mitten, Lower to Swanson’s, Lollypop, Kids cutoff, Boomerang and Wiggle Room were groomed for skate last night by Nils and Brandon. The classic was reset on most of the Main. The skiing should be really good with cold, firm snow early, progressively warming through the day. Creek is roped off. If you choose to duck the rope, be aware that there are two bare spots in corners that you will come upon at speed that will likely damage your skis and might cause injury.

The snow is holding but don’t wait too long to ski!

Solitude Nordic

Good morning nordic skiers! At 0730 it is 15°F and all Solitude trails are groomed for classic and skate skiing except Big Redman cul-de-sac.
Canyon traffic will be an issue, but time it right and come on up.

Mountain Dell

Cary and John groomed Saturday morning and as of noon it was still skiing great. Main, Mitten, Lower to Swanson’s, Lollipop, Boomerang and Wiggle Room are all open. If you duck the rope to ski Creek, use caution! There are a few bare spots that you will come upon at speed and they will take you down! We will be grooming again this evening. PLEASE STAY OFF THE COURSE AFTER 6 P.M. SATURDAY! The skiing Sunday should be quite good until about noon Sunday. See you out there!

What a wonderful day to be in the mountains. Groomed the Upper and Lower Loops and set the classic track. Dragged Jordan Pines, I think we’ll take over the grooming equipment next week when the snow settles a little bit more. Sushi Scale: Alaska Roll

Soldier Hollow

It’s a beautiful wintry day here at Soldier Hollow. Be aware that the Wasatch Citizen Series race is this morning! For less crowds, be sure to show up after 12:00 P.M. Come enjoy our manmade and natural trails today!

* The below Grooming report is likely meant for Solitude Nordic, not Soldier Hollow. This is our grooming report of the day.

Mountain Dell

Cary and John groomed Saturday morning. Thin is the word of the day. Heads up, use caution! They reset skate on Main, Mitten, Lower to Swanson’s and Lollipop. Creek is closed due to several bare spots. If you choose to duck the rope, watch for rocks! Too thin to reset classic, but the tracks on Main were still mostly well formed late Friday afternoon. Might be last call! Get out and enjoy the sunny day.

Happy Saturday,

We have groomed a 1km lower loop on hole #6 next to the trailhead and it is in great shape for both skate and classic. Unfortunately, the rest of the lower trail is not skiable at this time due to lack of snow on our connection bridges. We still would need a few more inches to get the entire lower trail open. The team has completed grooming our upper 1.5km trail and it is also in great shape for both skate and classic.

Day passes will be $10 for the rest of the season!

The Wasatch Citizens Series distance race scheduled this Saturday for the Farm Trail was moved to Soldier Hollow. Details are at utahnordic.org

Saturday Haiku:
Time to grab your gear,
Bundle up warm this morning,
ski the day, smile.

It is going to be a bluebird day! Starting out at 0F this morning with sunshine and warming through the day. We are snowcat grooming the 3k “Community Loop”, the 5km loop and Armstrong this morning. Armstrong was groomed and will be very soft but good. The deep culverts and drainages on the farm still risk damaging equipment and skiers. The dog loop has been flooded from irrigation water and is a grassy ice rink.
It’s another blue wax, SPF 50, fresh groomed snow day at White Pine Touring. Please stay off the golf course and other trails unless you’re on skis. Someone walked the entire 3k loop yesterday with their dog and spoiled thousands of dollars of hard grooming work. Round Valley, Basiv Rec and Willow Creek are fantastic dog options.
Warm red beanies are recommended and be cautious, it is icy out on the sidewalks.
The shop and trails are OPEN 9-5 today offering lessons, trail passes, gear sales, waxing service, rental skis and snowshoes. Drop off your skis for a spa wax treatment. Join us for thankful snow dances, offerings to Ullr, and very happy snow bunnies as we watch the sun set from the deck!
