It's about 13F at Washington Pass, and fresh grooming should be finished by 9:30 a.m.
Sounds good to me!
Glide Wax: Swix 6 or Toko Red
Grip Wax: Vauhti GS Blue, Toko Blue, or Swix Blue Extra
Have some fun out there!
(There's no skiing on the valley floor at this point.)

Nov 29 Wa Pass WOTD
Black Friday? Hmmm. Snow covers the ground, so I think maybe it's a misnomer.
It's 3F at Washington Pass and 4F in Winthrop at 7:00 a.m. Cold from top to bottom.
But there's plenty of snow at the Pass and tracked classic skiing, so let it warm up a bit and go scoot around a bit.
Glide Wax: Toko Blue or Swix 4
Grip Wax: Toko Blue, Swix Blue Extra, Rode Multigrade Blue/Green

Washington Pass is at 7F this morning with a little wind. Since WA Pass is the only groomed skiing nearby, WOTD is for that area.

As a little side note, Nordic Ultratune is closed on Thanksgiving day and then will be open on Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon. Stop in!

Nov 27 WOTD Wa Pass
Since there's no skiing on the valley floor, this report will be for the Washington Pass zone today.
The story this morning at Wa Pass is the wind. Gusts to 45 mph, and steady over 30 mph. And 9F. Forecast high of 17. And new snow! 4-6 inches! So basically a howler up there. But maybe you wanna ski anyway? It's your day off and you gotta git some skiing? Okay, lesssgo!
Glide wax: Swix 6 or Toko Blue
Grip wax: Start Blue, Swix Blue Extra or Rode Blue Super.
Or maybe some waxless skis for your early season shuffling.
The overlook loop was groomed on Tuesday afternoon, with set classic tracks, if the wind and new snow hasn't filled them in.
