Untracked Crust Cruising

Crust skiing is going strong, and is a great option on both classic and skate skis. On many skier-tracked (non-groomed) trails, skiing the untracked crust is the best way to go as the frozen tracks are often like ”coral reef”!

2023-2024 Silly M-W Teewinots!

P3200128 (660x800).jpg

When it comes to having fun on a pair of Nordic skis, nobody beats the Teewinots!  Pictured above is the 2023-2024 Monday Wednesday Teewinots, this image being them striking a silly pose.  Coach Libby and crew, while building basic skills in these up and coming skiers, have also spent lots of time playing an amazing array of games and activities throughout the season to make it all lots of fun.  Hopefully we will see all of you Teewinots back next year!

You however, don’t need to wait until next year to have a great Nordic ski.  Late in the day yesterday the Husky was hard at it, covering pretty much every trail in the system.  Most trails received a single skate/classic pass with the Close Field receiving multiple passes and lots of additional funky grooming in preparation for the big race (volunteers still needed) March 30-April 1.  Conditions will be very firm this morning, softening as the day progresses, depending of course on the amount of sun exposure.

It does look like our current run of perfect bluebird days will be winding down with a return to winter next week.  However, we are all Nordic skiers and winter is a fantastic thing!  Next grooming will most likely be Friday evening.

Groomer’s choice is to check out Faceplant which is still skiing nicely but might not be around for long depending on how things melt.

Grooming Daily – Final Day Sunday
Last Update
: 3/20
The best classic skiing is between 11am and 1pm due to the typical end of season freeze/thaw cycle. The best skate skiing is right now after our morning groom!

Today is the last day for waxing and Saturday will be our final day for grooming. The track closes at sundown on Sunday because the golf crew will begin clearing snow and working after that. There isn’t much time between our closing date and the opening date for golf and there is an incredible amount of work that happens to get the course ready to open.

Starting plowing the windy mile at the south end so more people can bike to avoid traffic.


Shooting Star

Grooming Daily
Last Update: 3/18
Grooming has switched back to the mornings as we’ve finished our black sand application. Warm temperatures have caused the trails to shift into a spring profile and skiers should anticipate icy conditions during the morning followed by slushy/softer conditions in the afternoon. Due to the spring profile, settled areas, icy/crunchy sections, and ponding may be common as the snow significantly melt during the day then solidly freezes at night, which creates difficult grooming conditions regardless of morning or evening grooming. Overall, skiing should be enjoyable, but be aware that conditions will vary depending on the time of day.  Outlook is calling for warm conditions to continue with possible wintry weather returning by the weekend. Enjoy the sunshine and late season skiing!

Turpin Meadow Ranch

Grooming Has Ended For The Season
Last Update: 3/17
What a day for the season closer! Sunny skies, fast trails, delicious food, lots of rentals and a lesson out of our ski hut, the luck of the Irish, and smiles all around. Thank you to all who visited us this winter. As we reflect on the 2023/2024 winter season we are so grateful for the community who loves Turpin, it truly is the people who make this place special. 

Turpin Meadow Ranch is located on the Bridger-Teton National Forest therefore you can still use the winter trails though they will no longer be maintained and most amenities are closed for the season. The lodge restrooms and retail shop will be open from 9am-4pm until April 15. If you venture up this spring be sure to carry your bear spray. We kindly ask that any springtime trail users respect the fact that the buildings, vehicles, and essentially anything above ground is private property and unavailable during the off season.

Pushed a bunch of snow into some thin spots, widened out the snowmobile lane and set a double rabbit track to the back campground. It’s soft and slushy now but should be firm and fast by morning. 

Trail Etiquette: Please keep your dogs leashed in the parking lot and be sure to clean up after them!


Southern Valley Nordic

Grooming Schedule: Tuesday, Friday, Sunday
Last Updated: 3/19
Tuesday morning: I was able to get a decent reset on all skate lanes at Southern Valley. Kevin’s classic track from yesterday on Yetis looked good so I left it alone. Tried to reset the classic track on Campground but it didn’t turn out great. No classic track on Campground extension. Enjoy the sunshine!

Singletrack: 3/20
Groomed Upper/lower ladyslipper and BPA. Conditions are SOFT. The base was barely able to support the sleds. Hopefully the temps drop and it firms up by morning. If you’re gonna ride, best to do it early. Snowshoes are recommended for walkers and runners. 

Please note the USFS dog closure policy Dec 1st – April 15th at this venue.  


Teton Reserve Nordic

Grooming Schedule: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday
Last Updated: 3/21
Groomed all of the southern loops for skate and classic. Fixed a lot of the ruts and off camber sections. Not quite perfect, but better than it’s been in weeks. Come enjoy the glide before this venue disappears due to warming temperatures and sun exposure.

ATTENTION: Do not CRUST CRUISE on golf course property and respect the privacy of homeowners. Stay away from homes, private property and ski on established trails only. Thank you. 


Sherman Park

Grooming Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
Last Updated: 3/19
Reset the skate and classic track with Ginzugroomer. Turned out OK given the conditions. Get it early before it turns to a sloppy mess. Primetime should be between 30 and 40 degrees between the freeze and thaw. Enjoy the glide.


Driggs School Loops

Grooming Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
Last Updated: 3/20
Reset skate and classic Wednesday morning. Turned out pretty well considering the conditions. Crust cruising still rules, but the track should be decent for a day or two.

Please pick up your trash and dog pop with the supplied Mutt Mitt station.


Alta Nordic Track

Grooming Schedule: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday
Last Updated: 3/21
Thursday: made two passes on the skate lane to remove ruts, holes, and tracks. Conditions are fast. Did not reset classic as it is still there in most places, was fairly hard, and the 7 skiers I saw were all skating.

ATTENTION: Skiers CRUST CRUISING please respect the privacy of homeowners stay away from homes and private property. Thanks.
