Trail Creek Report

Last Updated: 1/28 @ 12:30pm

Racing This Weekend!

We enter the busy racing season with the Wyoming High School race this Friday and Saturday.  The course above details the challenging terrain that Coach Katie has chosen to test the best high school Nordic skiers Wyoming has to offer.  If you have a little time coming up be sure to put it on your calendar and come on out and watch some great racing.  Friday’s race will begin in the afternoon with the Saturday race starting in the morning, more details to come…

It is nothing short of gorgeous here today at Trail Creek with nearly unlimited sunshine, calm winds and a 12:15 PM temperature of -4ºC/25ºF.  Today’s practice call was for classic distance and stadiums.  The resulting grooming of the day was double Pisten Bully passes with fresh classic tracks on all field trails and all woods trails except for the National Forest which received only a Pisten Bully skate pass.  NF trails did receive fresh classic tracks yesterday which are still nice.  All in all it’s just a great day for a Nordic ski.

Alta Track

Skate: Good  |  Classic: Good
I ran two laps this morning with the ginzu. I left the classic track as it was since it looked really good. It has drifted in at a few spots on the northern loops but is in exquisite shape over most of the track. I ran two laps over the skate lane to smooth it up. Should be really good out there. Enjoy!
