Last Update: Friday February 3, 2012
Notice: There will be no regular updates to the grooming schedule over the weekend. Groomers will still be sending real-time Tweets so look there for the latest grooming information.
See the latest updates in the grooming tweets below
VALLEY FLOOR: The Valley Floor is scheduled for grooming this (Friday) morning. Conditions are generally very good, however skiers are advised to be alert for thin spots and obstacles. Good Morning Telluride and the NW side of Moon Shadow were roller groomed only (no classic set). The next grooming is scheduled Saturday morning.
PRIEST LAKE: Priest Lake was groomed Wednesday for for skate and classic skiing. Conditions are excellent! The next grooming is scheduled Friday.
Priest Lake Parking: There is limited parking at Priest Lake. Please do not constrict the access drive. It is also important to maintain a snowmobile path between the garage and the trail (at the handicap parking sign). If the lot is full, please park across the highway on San Bernardo Road.
TROUT LAKE: Notice - Telluride Nordic Association has been notified by the Forest Service that we can no longer groom the upper trails known as “Tom’s Loop” and the “South Meadow Trail” due to possible adverse impact on Canada Lynx habitat. The trail sections located above and to the south of the corrals at the top of Lizard Head Pass will not be groomed again this season. TNA will maintain a dialog the the Forest Service with the goal of including those trails under our permit as some time in the future.
The Railroad Grade and Corral Loop (only remaining trails) were groomed for skate and classic skiing on Monday. Conditions are soft but otherwise excellent. The next grooming is scheduled Friday afternoon.
As always, the latest updates can be found in the grooming tweets below.
AVALANCHE DANGER: There are several points along the Trout Lake RR Grade with adjacent (south side) slopes that are prone to small avalanche slides. Skiers should exercise caution at these locations (anywhere there is a slope greater than 30 degrees with the toe of the slope ending on the RR Grade trail).
Please do not park along Trout Lake Road or at the snowplow turnaround. If you are unsure whether your vehicle can make it all the way to the parking lot, please access the trail from Lizard Head Pass. Please remember to observe the 15 mph speed limit on Trout Lake Road.
