A Bit Breezy!
The snow is moving around the fields somewhat today as of 11 AM at Trail Creek; while not anywhere near the raging blizzard category, many classic tracks in the fields are rapidly disappearing in the partly sunny, -3ºC/27ºF conditions. Today’s Ginzu grooming was multiple passes of all trail, woods and fields, plus a little touch up of some of the classic tracks in the woods. So far all trails are skating nicely and except for some moose and elk damage most woods classic tracks are pretty good.
Looking ahead our record group of IMD racers are off to California for nationals next Friday and the majority of our programs will wrap up for the season by the following Friday. As far as grooming goes our last possible date will be March 31st although that could be changed due to weather and snow conditions.

Beautiful day today with the Tetons showing off. Tuesday and Wednesday are calling for some afternoon snow, then clearing for the weekend. Come get another few laps in before we shut down for the season. Last day of grooming will be Sunday March 8th.

The levee is groomed and in Ok shape. The classic track is shallow because of how firm the track is right now. Stilson will be done around 9:45. The school fields are groomed and in good shape.

We are closing early(3pm) on Tuesday March 3, but will resume normal hours on Wednesday March 4 (9am-4pm).
Conditions are still good and holding steady but watch the thermometer as we are in some pretty serious freeze/thaw cycles from now until the end of the season. The skiing will be best late morning after the temps begin to raise. Skate skiing conditions are typically awesome this time of year but classic track skiing conditions can vary drastically. The warm days make resetting the classic track challenging so please bear with us as we rapidly approach the end of the season! We’ve had incredible ski conditions and grooming for the past 100 days—so please thank our great groomers(Mike, Mark, and Curt)when you see them!
Our entire classic rental fleet is on sale now as we prepare to bring in a new rental fleet next season!
Classic package:
Salomon Snowscape 7 skis
Salomon Escape/Siam/etc boots
Swix poles
Total: $275 (dates for pickup vary on size you need—call us for details).
We have spring gloves, base layers, hats, jackets and a few pairs of pants remaining! We also have great deals on classic, BC, and skate skiing poles, boots, and skis!

March is officially here and hints of spring weather are expected to appear! This week should provide plenty of enjoyable days for Nordic skiing. With the days being longer, combined with above freezing high’s, expect the snow to be ever evolving throughout the day and icy patches may frequent certain exposures. Have fun!

Grooming Today
Update: 2/22
Skier Update: Trail is ‘ groomed’ – not perfectly smooth corduroy, more “flattened and rolled”. Occasionally, there is a classic cross-country track, sometimes not. Certainly a nice hour and bit around the golf course with great views, a fun place to ski if you are looking for a new flat, groomed trail to try out.
Groomed with classic track on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

It’s March and that means there’s fewer and fewer days left in the season.
Applying the economic principles of shred, a scarcity of days increases the absolute value of said days, especially if they are
going to be sunny and soft.

Apparently it did not warm up too much in canyon yesterday, so snow is still quite manageable. Able to reset both classic and skate tracks this morning. Both look to be good.
