December 11th Grooming Report
Snow, Snow, & More Snow!
The day dawned with a battle between sun and clouds; a quite dramatic rouge painted the early morning summits, but the old adage, “red in the morning, sailors take warning” is the reality that’s happening today at Trail Creek. With the progression of morning, the leaden clouds descended the canyon and as of 11:30 AM heavy snow was falling with a temperature of -8ºC/18ºF. The forecast is for lots more to come in the days ahead.
While that snow will might give you a little bonus exertion on your Nordic workout today, it will continue to build our bases promising pristine, awesome conditions in the near future. Our efforts to make pristine skiing today included Pisten Bully best line passes on all recently groomed trails along with fresh classic tracks in the close field. As you plan your workout time today however, know that the inch an hour plus current rate of snowfall will have an impact on your plans. One recent addition that has not been reported is that the notorious Faceplant is now being groomed and skiing quite well.
This weekend many of the IMD kids are off the Ketchum for the Sun Valley Supertour, the first official Intermountain Division Nordic event of the year, a great time for the teams to get ready for the upcoming qualifiers, for details click on the image below.
Groomer’s choice for today is Woolsey Woods.
