Turpin Meadow Trail Report
A few photos from Turpin Meadow Monday morning. The single track fat bike track goes through some beautiful terrain. Love the fresh, light snow on the trees – the joy of winter in January – a fleeting time!

Snow!
Looking at the forecast today, it is a relatively simple weather future; snow, then snow, and then some more snow. About 8 additional inches have fallen since the end of grooming yesterday with no signs of it letting up. As of 12:30 in addition to moderate snowfall, conditions were calm with a temperature of -6ºC/21ºF.
Today’s grooming was with the Pisten Bully which managed to visit nearly every trail in our network, however by the end of grooming nearly 3 inches had fallen on the morning’s first passes. Taking into account this and the fact that some of the trails hadn’t been groomed for a few days has resulted in conditions for skaters that will be a bit on the rustic side. In anticipation of lots of snow, the majority of today’s skiers have been of the classic variety and they have all in all been making good progress on the fresh classic tracks on most trails.
The high school team is finishing up its second day of racing in Pinedale this weekend, click on the image above to see all the results.
Groomer’s choice for today is Moose Loop.

The levee and Stilson are groomed and in good shape. Both will be a bit soft until they have time to set up. I am heading to the school fields shortly and should be done around 10:00.

The sun is out and it’s time to put your skate skis on and trek up to Signal Mountain before the snow flies again tonight. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts.

Nordic: The High School Ski Race starts at noon in Upper Surveyor Park today. Mass start, should be fun to watch. Freshly groomed this morning for both classic and skating are Half Moon Tie-In, Kelly Park, Kelly Tie-In, Upper & Lower Surveyor, Moose Ridge, Tree Loop, Powerline and Old Road Trail. Aspen and Looney Lane are flat groomed. Cold this morning, -10F degrees, now is 10F degrees. Couple inches of fresh snow this morning. Golf Course and CCC trails should be in pretty good shape. Sure do appreciate folks cleaning up after their pets. Still a number of deer and moose around – please keep pets under control. Saw a herd of elk on the way up this morning, but they are not on the trails yet.
Fat Bike: All singletrack in the Kelly Park area and upper Skyline Rd has been groomed as of 6:30AM this morning. The temperatures should make the trails exciting to ride this weekend coupled with the brilliant full moon. Take advantage of the great conditions.
