Thank you for continually sharing your photos with us of Nordic skiing in Jackson Hole
Nordic trails are skiing at their best
Exquisite skate and classic skiing on Teton Park Road- multiple reports of joy and elation, skiing from Taggart trailhead north to Jenny Lake and beyond on the freshly groomed trail.
With current dry conditions, groomed Nordic trails are skiing at their best (and un-groomed too!) A perfect way to get out in the fresh air, wide- open spaces, from a relaxed pace to a vigorous work-out. You may see only a few people or no one at all. Great time over the holidays to get out and ski , snowshoe or fat bike a favorite trail, or go search on JHNordic.com/trails/ or our daily trail report for somewhere new.

Trail Creek Nordic
Last Updated: 12/22
Christmas Week!
Hopefully a wonderful and happily busy time is on tap for everyone this week. The tourists are pouring into town, family members are home for the holidays, and several events are on tap for Trail Creek as well. The teams will be training this week, albeit in a somewhat different schedule so your normal ski time which might usually be quite quiet could become a festive event.
Speaking of festive events, make sure you make it out for the Betty Woolsey Classic Race and Holiday Bonfire, both coming up next Saturday.
In the world of racing, results have been posted for this weekend’s high school race in Laramie. While not all of the area high school racers participated this weekend, there were still some admirable showings which can be viewed here.
As of 11:30 AM the sun had not yet made up its mind as to whether or not it was going to put in an appearance today with an undecided sky, the wind was calm, and the temperature was -4ºC/25ºF. Today’s grooming was a Pisten Bully best line pass of almost every trail. Skate lanes are skiing well and classic tracks are doing pretty well in most places although in a few spots a reset would be nice which is waiting for additional snow forecast this week.
Turpin Meadows Ranch
Last Updated: 12/21
Turpin Meadow Ranch is officially open for the 2019/2020 Winter Season. All trails are in and the classic tracks have been set. Those who have skied so far this weekend have raved about the Meadow and Turpin Loop Trails. The Views of the Tetons from the Mule Loop Trail is especially amazing today.
The Lodge is open for Lunch daily from 11:30 am – 2:30 pm. For those wanting to check out the weather and local conditions we just added and LIVE streaming Camera here at the ranch. You can log in from the comfort of your desk or at home and see what the conditions are here at the ranch. You can also watch some of the most amazing sunsets and sunrises over the Tetons.

The sun will rise again on immaculate groomers, sun-softened snow, and the festive atmosphere that goes hand-in-hand with those warm days slopeside. Mostly cloudy skies in the morning will cede to sunshine by afternoon. Warmer temperatures with a high near 32 and breezy conditions will provide the background for this wonderful day on the mountain.
