3 Creek Ranch
Nordic Program
2015-2016
November 12, 2015
Greetings everyone,
I want to welcome all of you to our 2015-2016 Winter Outdoor Pursuits/Nordic ski Program. I am excited to report that we continue to see an increase each year in the number Nordic skiers here at 3 Creek Ranch. The weekly instructional clinics provide a casual and fun way to learn, and the off-site ski tours are a great way to learn about and enjoy our winter environment around the valley.
New this winter season will be the opening of the Golf Pro Shop for all Nordic ski events. Our new ‘Nordic Pro Shop’ will provide you with a warm and elegant place to meet before and after scheduled clinics, meet friends, enjoy hot refreshments, and simply relax while getting ready for the day on the track. We will have Nordic ski storage and full wax/repair services at the shop. Shortly, I will be sending out more details about the use of this facility.
I will be offering instructional ski clinics each week designed for all ability levels in both classic and skate technique. The track will be open to snowshoeing, snow bikes and dogs, and we ask everyone to be considerate and respectful of the guidelines we set forth for these activities. I will also offer an off-site ski ‘tour’ once a week in different locations throughout the valley. We will travel in mostly flat terrain, often making our own trail and enjoying a bit of quiet solitude with friends.
I will continue to send a weekly schedule with specific details and information about the clinics and off-site tours. As always, we will begin trail grooming once we have adequate snow cover, and you will receive a daily report of grooming and trail conditions.
If you are new to Nordic skiing, or are ready to upgrade your equipment, please allow me to help you choose the appropriate skis, boots, poles and clothing to ensure you get the most out of your Nordic skiing experience. Like many Outdoor Pursuits in our valley, the right equipment can and will make all the difference.
We can all appreciate the health benefits and the exhilaration of cross country skiing. Whether you prefer our groomed skating track and classic ‘lanes’ or to gather a few friends and ski through the meadows along the base of the Tetons, cross country skiing combines the best of outdoor winter recreation, fitness, and good health. I encourage all of you to come out and experience this truly world-class winter amenity at 3 Creek Ranch.
I look forward to skiing with all of you this winter…
All my best to you and yours, Roger |
