Fat Bikes and E-bikes: Winter Trail Etiquette
As many folks have discovered, riding a fat bike is really fun. The popularity of fat biking has grown quickly in the past few years and fat bikes have become ubiquitous on most of the winter trails in the area. Many of the Jackson area trails are multi-use with hikers, dogs, skiers, snowmobiles and fat bikers all recreating in close proximity. With the privilege of using the trails comes a high level of responsibility for all users in order to avoid conflicts.
A friendly reminder during this storm cycle: ride when the trail is firm. Do not ride when the trail is soft and you are leaving ruts 1″ or deeper. This damages the groomed trail for all users. Tires of 3.8″ or wider should be used and it may be necessary to drastically reduce tire air pressure to minimize ruts and increase traction.
Last New Moon Night Ski of the Season TONIGHT
Nordic skiing and fat biking isn’t over just because the sun went down! Join the energetic, fun crew at Turpin for a few laps after dark. This will be our last New Moon Night Ski of the season with one more full moon fondue night ski on March 7.

A Duvet of Snow?
We often speak of a ‘blanket’ of snow covering the landscape; today’s snowfall didn’t quite qualify as a ‘blanket’, but perhaps a duvet of snow? A Quilt? A Snuggie? Anyway, regardless of the type of bed covering, a pleasant 1+ inches of snow fell on Trail Creek last night, making for some very nice grooming, beautiful trails on a beautiful day.
In local sports news, local skier Lena Poduska has placed 11th in the international championships! This is a really amazing job; great work, Lena!
Today’s grooming was a single pass across most of the network. Temperatures are already in the 20’s, so skiing should be eminently pleasant, well worth an afternoon visit.
Groomer’s choice is Woolsey Woods.

Last Update: 2/19
The pisten bully was out grooming a near perfect track smooshing the 3″ of snow that fell overnight on Saturday, which made for a fun and fast track on Sunday. Monday morning the pisten bully will be out again and we expect more snow and more fun! The single track will be groomed daily during this storm cycle but will likely be soft in the hills.
Turpin Meadow Ranch is open to all for skiing, lodging, dining, Nordic lessons, and tours! Closing day (March 12, 2022) is not too far away so make your plans to come to Turpin soon! Call the office (307) 543-2000 or visit our website to book your adventure and/or meal!
