January 2nd Grooming Report
A Change Is On The Horizon!
After several weeks of almost nothing in the snow department, it finally looks like the New Year is ushering in some new trends in snowfall. While we still have a couple days of sunshine, looking through next weekend forecast models are calling for about 7 inches of snow with the longer term outlooks calling for above normal precip beyond next weekend. We have a very nice Prinoth Husky that can’t wait to do its thing; hopefully it will be turned loose soon!
Some of our IMD racers will be turning their skis loose in competition at the Nordic Senior Nationals in Soldier Hollow this week. Official racing begins today, the schedule is available on the event website and timing is being provided by Summit Timing.
Things are going to get really busy Wednesday this week when all the JHSC programs hit the snow at Trail Creek. Kindergarteners on up will be enjoying sliding over our wonderful snow. Looking ahead to next weekend, don’t forget to mark your calendars for the Jackson Hole Nordic Free Ski Day at Turpin Meadows. Information is available at the JH Nordic website.
Today’s grooming at Trail Creek was at least a best line Ginzu pass on most every trail recently groomed with multiple passes around the Close Field. In addition several play areas were groomed out in anticipation of multitudes of youthful skiers on Wednesday. While conditions are still thin, the hard working snow still is providing some pretty good early season skiing.
Groomer’s choice for today is the Close Field.
