New fluffy cold snow! About 10 inches of fresh snow fell overnight!
Temps this morning are around 12 F on the valley floor. and will be climbing to the low twenties during the day today.
Wax recommendations:
Glide - Toko Blue or Swix 5 should be good. You could also try one of the liquid waxes that apply without aerosol, like Vauhti Blue or Green .
Grip -- Try something like Vauhti Blue, Toko Blue, or Swix Blue Extra. Or you could use fish scale bases or newer skin skis and skip the grip wax altogether. Tip: in unconsolidated new snow, wax a couple inches longer than normal in the front and back to help with grip; the fluffy new snow tends to shear, and a longer wax pocket will resist that.
Have fun out there!
Expect closures and and late openings today.
