Horse and Carriage!
Want to mix up your Nordic outing today, how about a game of horse and carriage with your favorite ski buddy! Thanks to Coach Libby for sending in the great image above of a pair of her Teewinots showing how much fun it can be on your skis, with a friend, doing silly things!
If you’re out with your buddy or not, you should be able to have a nice ski today at Trail Creek; the much anticipated snow has finally arrived with around two inches falling by report time and more forecast throughout the week.
Today’s Husky grooming covered pretty much every trail with the focus of the wood’s section of the grooming journey mostly resetting classic tracks along the way. Most of the fields, Armin’s, Animal Farm, and Olympic all received multiple passes with fresh skate and classic grooming. The combination of the fresh snow and 30º temperature made for some of the nicest results in a few days, check it out!
Groomer’s choice for today is Armin’s.

It’s incredible the difference a couple of inches can make! I used the ginzu to level out and repair our trails and it turned out really nicely. I’m going to wait for a little more snow before I put new classic track down. In the meantime today will be a great day for a ski of either flavor. The trails are a little soft for bikes but the single track got a fresh groom, bikers and walkers are encouraged to stick to the single track during this storm cycle.
TMR is open to the public daily for skiing, meals, Nordic lessons, and tours! Call the office (307) 543-2000 or visit our website to book your adventure! Check out our live webcam for current conditions.

Gave yeti and campground a quick touch up 2/1. It was tough to reset the classic track in places but it turned out well in places too. Looking forward to this weekends storm. A bit more soft snow will give us more to work with. Conditions should be firm and fast!
Singletrack: 2/2
Team – I headed out to check the SVT and it was raining and still pretty warm. We are going to hold off grooming the Grumpy’s/Hillbender loop tonight. We will try to find time to get it if the weather cooperates over the next few days.

Took a few passes on the skate track with the Ginzu. Didn’t help much. We could use some snow.
Driggs School Loops
Grooming Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
Last Updated: 2/1
Reset skate and classic Wednesday night. If you get out early on Thursday you will have fast, smooth skating. The classic track did not turn out great – the snow is too hard – but it is mostly usable. Snow is very thin going up/down the hills to the upper loop. Watch for rocks. Who would think we would be crust cruising in January? Pray for snow!
Please pick up your trash and dog pop with the supplied Mutt Mitt station.
