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…

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!!

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,

Help us remind walkers and dog walker to PLEASE use the snowshoe trail. A dog walker in snowshoes destroyed the classic track on the 5k hills yesterday in the rain. It’s regroomed now, but made a lot of unnecessary work for our groomers. There is a local resident who makes it a point to walk the south end of the 5k track every morning after we groom. Not sure what to do about that. It seems intentional.

The Final WCS race of the season will be Saturday at the Farm. Please carpool! Parking is reduced at St. Mary’s Church due to the heavy snowplow stacks. Registration deadline is tonight at midnight. All activities will be outdoors and the social hall will not be available for skiers due to an evening event at the church. Farm trail will be closed to public skiing on Saturday morning.

Mountain Dell

Mountain Dell was groomed Wednesday night after a significant rain event and very warm temperatures. Track Conditions may vary somewhat on Thursday depending on what time the the snow was worked Wednesday evening. Lower to Cullen’s, Lollipop and Creek were all groomed before sunset and will have firm, but very well formed skate lanes and classic Tracks.
Main, Mitten and Kids cutoff were worked later in the evening. Classic tracks are not quite as deep and consistent as those areas mentioned earlier and the skate lanes needed a lot more work due to changing temperatures and dwindling moisture in the snow. We did get to a point where we were fairly satisfied. with the skate lanes and they should all ski well on Thursday.

Wiggle Room and Boomerang were left off the list tonight.

Skiing should be firm and fairly fast Thursday morning and the track will soften as the sun gets higher. Have fun out there.

Groomed for skate and classic to the first switchback above Affleck Park. The heavy snow packed well and groomed nicely, but the classic lane was a bit ill defined in places below the restroom. Only one skate skier left descending tracks when we left near sunset. The hard freeze overnight will result in a flat and fast track in the morning. We normally are done grooming by now, so come experience bonus time in the canyon!

All trails groomed for skate and classic. 6-12 inches of new snow overnight, and snowing heavily now. Snow is heavy, wet, and warm. 32° at 8am, temps dropping slightly throughout the day.

We will not be grooming Wednesday morning to allow moisture to percolate out of the snowpack. As of 7 A.M. Wednesday, a few inches of fresh snow has fallen, but it is warm and wet and we will make a mess by driving on it. Still plenty of ski days to come on the Mountain Dell track this month, as we wrap up this most amazing winter. Thanks.

Groomed Spruces and Jordan Pines this morning. Left the classic track from yesterday. Sun is peeking out, nice day. I will groom for about another month and then will put the equipment away. Come out and ski before the season’s over.

Good Morning,

The upper and lower tracks have been groomed for skate. We were unable to reset the classic lane on both tracks because of the icy conditions. The track will soften up later this morning once it warms up into the low 40s. It’ll be a beautiful bluebird morning to come ski before we see some afternoon rain showers. Snow is expected in the overnight to hopefully allow us to reset a new classic lane.

We have a couple of days remaining on our Luck of the Jer Sale. 40% off in stock ski equipment, apparel and wax accessories. All in stock golf apparel, shoes and hats are all 40% off as well. So come up to Jeremy Ranch, enjoy a great ski and have a “Shop Around”!!

Have a great week,
