Maybe the wind wasn't as bad as yesterday's North American Vasa, but the temperature was 20 degrees colder at the start of today's Gran Travers. At least kick waxing was easy...

LATEST TRAIL CONDITIONS

WED, MAY 1

Unlisted trail: Mt Bachelor, Oregon:
It's the first of May and conditions are absolutely exquisite! The sky is brilliantly blue, the peaks are freshly powdered, and sunshine is dancing through the sparkling forests. Best of all, the trails are laced with flawless packed powder! The morning snow temp of 20*F is calling for Blue Extra wax. The skiing and silky and firm; truly dreamy snow conditions for skate and classic alike. We'd highly recommend bringing the full quiver and doing it all today! Every trail in the Nordic network (except Maiden's Bluff) is prepped with crisp tracks flowing corduroy. It's a joy to be able to ski The Lower Trails this late in the season... and on such epic snow! Don't miss out!

The current air temperature is 12*F and headed for a high in the 30's. The air is still but brisk and refreshing. SPF and sunglasses are essentials today, plus a few extra layers if you plan to ski early. The snowshoe trails are being re-packed by the Nordic Trail Steward this morning and are soon to be in great shape for hiking. Join us at the mountain to celebrate this epic May day.
