Happy pi day. But eating pie is close enough. Especially if you have earned it by getting a good nordic ski workout in. Do this quickly, as in right NOW (845am) as the 40 percent of the trails that were groomed are in super fast tip top skating shape right now. There will likely be slush by later so if you are more timid time your visit to have as soft and forgiving of snow as you like. There is even some crust cruising to be had on the open meadows between groomed trails.
Solitude Nordic
Trace overnight and 25°F/-4°C at 0800. Trace of snow on most tracks from yesterday. Main thouroughfares groomed. Beautiful skiing.
White Pine
A bit of mixed weather today. Temperatures will be warm before the storm. Crunchy crust conditions early should soften by mid morning. Red wax day with structure later as the wind warms the air. Skating will be very exciting early, classic tracks are solid and softening through the day. Spring conditions are finally here with more snow expected beginning tonight.
Skis and boots are going quickly during the sale, get in now while we have some good selection of skate skis. Clothing is still 50% off.
Final WCS race of the Season will be at the Farm Trail Saturday March 18th. Register before Thursday night. Participation gifts, season awards and every bit of remaining raffle prizes will be handed out after the race. All activities will be outdoors, the St. Mary’s social hall has an event booked in the evening that needs to be set up. Please carpool!
Mountain Dell
Tonight we groomed and reset everything for classic and skate. World Cup was mostly groomed (got stuck at the top and didn’t attempt another ascent in the rain). If it doesn’t rain more and freezes tonight, the conditions will be great until it rains again tomorrow afternoon. Unfortunately it’s not forecast to get below freezing tonight, but cross our fingers. Either way, skiing this afternoon was still good despite the warmer temperatures. The snowpack below is still holding firm in most places and has excellent coverage.
Cheers, Brock and Dan
Spruces
Spruces groomed for skate and classic skiing. A bit soft, but beautiful snow!
Jeremy Ranch
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 throughout the day once it warms up into the low 40s. It’ll be a beautiful bluebird day to come ski before we see some mixed weather the next couple days.
Have a great week,
Jeremy Ranch Nordic Center
Solitude Nordic
Good morning! 1″ new snow overnight and 22°F/-6°C/267.60 Kelvin at 0820.
All trails groomed for skate and classic skiing.
White Pine
Mixed weather today with high humidity. Light snow flurries , fog and/or sun expected throughout the day with warm temperatures. All trails groomed and open for classic and skate. Red wax and ski structure for today. Classic should be great, skate will be super with the right wax and base structure.
Help us remind walkers, dog walkers and snowshoers to stay off the Farm trail (and the other White Pine trails). Our trails are a fee area in the Winter season and White Pine pays for access as part of our contract. Help us track down the snowshoers who are climbing over the fence from the church without authorization. Walking on the trail creates holes and can be dangerous for skiers and difficult for groomers.
Our sale continues, 50% off clothes, 40% off skis, boots and poles. Get in here!
Mountain Dell
Mountain Dell was groomed for skate and classic on all trails Sunday night for Monday skiing. If it cools off, it should be some good skiing. if it does not cool off it will be soft. If it does not snow tonight expect klister skiing for classic wax.

Good Morning,
The upper track has been groomed for skate! The lower track has been groomed for classic and skate. The snow conditions are firm after some rain/snow mix throughout the night and morning. We received about 2 inches of fresh snow! It’s a still a great day to come ski the Nordic trails!
Happy Sunday,
Jeremy Ranch Nordic Center
Mountain Dell
A few inches of new snow fell on surfaces groomed last night. Classic lanes were not reset. Recent rain s could make things slushy underneath as temps warm up.
Soldier Hollow
One inch of new snow! All trails were groomed before that so fun conditions! Come ski before the mixed precip comes. Rossignol Women’s Clinic here today with Rossi reps.
White Pine
Back to a touch of winter after yesterday’s spectacular spring sunshine. Light snow flurries expected throughout the day with moderate temperatures. All trails groomed and open for classic and skate. Red wax for today. Classic should be great, depending on the snow, skate will be fun and possibly adventurous.
Help s remind walkers and dog walkers that the ski trail is for skiing. The snowshoe trail is free and available for walking. There are numerous trails in the area that are perfect for exercising pets. If you don’t know where they are please ask for directions. Walking on the track ruins the grooming and can make the track dangerous for skiers.
Get in here for the sale! we still have some really nice skis, boots and poles, but they are going quickly.
Spruces
Beautiful blue bird day at Spruces. Couple inches of fresh snow. Groomed Jordan Pines and Spruces this morning. Set classic around Spruces. Really nice day to ski, enjoy!
Jeremy Ranch
