Trail Report: Jackson Lake to Colter Bay Hermitage Point
Nice conditions skiing on the edge of Jackson Lake and in the Heron Pond area. Backcountry Nordic skis are essential, as you may be breaking your own trail or following skier tracks through fresh snow.

Trip report- Grand Teton National Park
Trail Creek Nordic
Last Updated: 1/20
One More Race Picture!
There were so many amazing things happening over the weekend that at least one more race picture had to be shared in this report. Thanks again to all who helped!
Trail Creek started the day frosty and cold with a strong inversion in place. As of 11:30 AM temps have warmed a bit but are still a bit chilly at -12ºC/10ºF. The sun is starting to peak through and the calm conditions are preventing the rapid disintegration of the inversion with current temps on the mountain tops near freezing.
As far as skiing goes today, you’ll find nothing but lots of really nice conditions. Except for a few instances of elk damage, most classic tracks are crisp, sharp, and kickable and skate lanes are likewise firm and fast. The Pisten Bully was out on many trails today although quite a bit of today’s grooming was dedicated to out of the way opportunities for our young skiers that you too can explore if you make it out today.
Now that the big qualifier race is out of the way, the next major event on the Trail Creek horizon is the Nordic Carnival on February 8th. Look for more information to come in the days ahead.
Groomer’s choice for today is the East Fields.

Beautiful sunset followed by a clear night and cold temps makes for perfect cross country skiing. The weeks forecast is calling for more sun and clear skies. The trails are skiing fast and fun and our 3 miles of singletrack fat bike trails are in excellent condition.

A few updates on the Nordic Track and JHG&T.
Season Passes are available to non members for $100, passes can be picked up in the admin office at JHGTC M-F 9am-5pm or by calling 307.733.7787.
We purchased a new groomer 2 years ago so we do now have a set cross country track with enough room for skate skiers and/or fat bikes next to the set track.
There are no other services available (ie. No lunch) though dinner is offered Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings beginning at 5:30pm; Clubhouse amenities are reserved for members only.
We groom the track on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays

There is at least one benefit of these frosty temperatures; the quality of the snow has maintained over the last couple of days! Off-groomers is still nice, soft, & light.

Nordic: Groomed the Golf Course and CCC Pond trails this morning. Will probably do the trails above either tonight or tomorrow morning depending on conditions.
Fat Bike 1/10: The High School Ski Race starts at noon in Upper Surveyor Park today. Mass start, should be fun to watch. Freshly groomed this morning for both classic and skating are Half Moon Tie-In, Kelly Park, Kelly Tie-In, Upper & Lower Surveyor, Moose Ridge, Tree Loop, Powerline and Old Road Trail. Aspen and Looney Lane are flat groomed. Cold this morning, -10F degrees, now is 10F degrees. Couple inches of fresh snow this morning. Golf Course and CCC trails should be in pretty good shape. Sure do appreciate folks cleaning up after their pets. Still a number of deer and moose around – please keep pets under control. Saw a herd of elk on the way up this morning, but they are not on the trails yet.
