January 14th Grooming Report--Just a Glorious Day!

January 14th Grooming Report

Just a Glorious Day!

Mid-January, with a blazing sun caressing the snowy slopes from the middle of a beyond blue sky, not a whiff of wind, and temps climbing into the 20’s, it just doesn’t get much better than that, especially if you’re a Nordic skier at Trail Creek today!  To top that all off it’s Friday; a fantastic day to go for a ski.

Today’s grooming at Trail Creek covered most trails with a few classic tracks being reworked here and there although the primary mission was buffing out the skate lanes with the Husky.  Steady cool temps and weak mid-winter sun have contributed to nice snow conditions, in spite of a week without significant precipitation.  All in all skiing is very nice.

Yesterday the Nordic Recreational Masters held their first clinic of the year at Trail Creek.  As you can see a good crowd showed up and the image above doesn’t show all that were participating.

The race teams are off today to the first Junior National Qualifier of the season in Sun Valley.  They’ll be racing over the weekend; results can be viewed on the event website.  We’ve entered the serious race season with either IMD or Wyoming High School events almost every weekend for some time to come.

Groomer’s choice for today is to make sure you take advantage of this great day and go skiing.
