The grooming crew's focus at Priest is to maintain the base. That means targeted shovelling of snow at thin and bare spots. Priest trails are holding up remarkably well given the thin base and warm temps. Conditions are hard packed, icy and rough. No regular (or full) g...

Groomed the entire Nordic track and singletrack including the new north loops on the north side of Elm Street and west side of the elementary school. Skate lane is completely in, but too thin to lay a worthy classic track. Had to redo some of the track see you'll see some weir...

Warm temperatures overnight mean a little softer surface than we had yesterday. Corduroy is coming out great and tracks are deep.  Overcast sky and calm.

Nice day of skiing.  Good coverage and full of corduroy 

All trails have been groomed for classic and skate except North Cherry Cr. Enjoy 

All trails were rolled and ginzued with the exception of the chiwaji hills.  Fluffy snow continued to fall as I groomed so there will likely be a bit of fluff on top.  No new classic tracks unfortunately.  The fluffy snow didn't make for a very good track.

Trails are groomed and the skiing is very nice. No tracks but a great skate deck.

Heading out to ginzu groom the Nordic loops. Planning to reset the classic track and skate lane. Centennial Pathway was groomed for skate on Thursday. Enjoy!

New terrain open on Pony Express.  Fantastic conditions for classic and skate. 

Fast hard work packed conditions non the south Harriman. North fork loop is still pretty thin. Enjoy!

The trail crew was relentless on the daunting task of clearing the trails! Which allowed the groomer to spend time repairing irregularities and set classic tracks which overall turned out well. Should be some great skiing today and perhaps the sun might poke out I do see some ...

Groomed man-made snow loop of classic and staking.  All of golf course is groomed for skating (classic track setter was pushing down to grass).  Very windy and  blowing over the groomed trails out in the open.

Removed the downed tree and made 4 passes on the trails to soften them up a bit. The Stadium has also been refreshed. Have a great day!

Snowshoe/ Fat Bike trails groomed out ok.  The south end (365, Mustang, Pipeline) is firm and great, but the north end is suffering from dry snow and overeager bikers.  There were a ton of deep ruts and footprints on Traildemic, Twist, & Connector. We did out bes...

Trout Lake Nordic trails were groomed overnight for skate and classic skiing. Very good conditions.

The levee turned out great!

The Wood River Trail will be groomed as conditions allow. Daily grooming is not sustainable with the thin snow pack. Groomers will continue to groom, but it will not be daily until we have more snow. 

Quigley will be groomed as conditions allow. Grooming everyday is not sustainable with the thin snowpack. For now, there is skate and classic skiing. Watch for thin spots where dirt or grass is coming through. 

The port a potty is back at Cutler! Pete M. hauled it up there Thursday. Enjoy the warm weather this weekend. Remember, if you get up there too late in the day it will get sticky!

The groomers are out after the new snow and working to get all the trails in. Skiing looks good!

Ski Hill Nordic is not yet open, but the IRT is!The Ski Hill Noric trail is so roller-coastery that the low spots pool with water under the surface of the snow. If we were to groom those we'd end up with big puddles. Your very own multi-pond-skimming e...

Snow is starting to get a little harder but roughed up the fines and created an edgeable surface. Decent skiing. Enjoy!

Hard packed clear ice with a dusting of snow on top. Removed five downed trees and made three passes on trails and Stadium which is down to grass. Can't really recommend skiing at this point. More snow please!

Freshend up the Mat-Su loops.  Completely re-groomed the stadium, Pioneer, Eska, Butte, and Mtn Streams loops.

All trails were last rolled on Tuesday, Dec 17th. The snowpack is thin on most of the track with some bare spots and grass poking up. Hazardous conditions may exist. It will be good for a shuffle ski and to fill your spirit cup with fresh air and sunshine.  We will wait f...

We gave Shady Rest a fresh groom at 3 PM today! However, due to low snow levels, we may be forced to hit a pause on grooming until we receive more snow. In the meantime, make the most of what we have—there’s still plenty of winter fun to be had! Let’s ...

All singletrack trails groomed. Nice and smooth. 

These warm afternoons are not helping with trail prep. We are hitting the pause button on grooming till cooler temps and more snow arrives. Ski with caution and watch out for hazards.
