11.22.2016 - CONDITIONS UPDATE

11/22/2016

 
Dear Skiers,
 
Here’s an update about the conditions of the Rendezvous Ski Trails, happenings on the South Plateau, and the plan of action for the races:
  • South Plateau – currently the conditions on the South Plateau venue are less than ideal.  The snow pack has deteriorated from 10+” of snow to less than 6”.  The ground is not frozen up there and the snow is continuing to melt away.  Large, difficult to remove rocks are protruding through the snow pack even before compaction.  Given these elements, moving to the South Plateau is not a viable option.

  • Rendezvous Ski Trails –
    • As of 1pm, the race course trails, including all of Deja View, will be closed to preserve the snow.  PLEASE, for the consideration of all, DO NOT ski on the closed trails.
    • Biathlon races will proceed as scheduled, but with modified courses
    • Tele Hill has been removed from all race courses. 
    • USSA race course preview will occur on Friday morning prior to the race
    • Snow farming will begin immediately to help maintain the snow. 
      • Groups of shovelers will be meeting immediately following the Biathlon Race on Wednesday and at 11am on Thursday at the Iris Street Gate.  Shovels will be provided if anyone can come out and help.
Thank you for understanding that we are doing our best to make sure people are able to ski and ski safely.  Please remember this is early season and ski with the utmost caution.

Snow, Trails, Festival Update

11/18/2016

 
November 18th:  After the recent snow fall, we are going with PLAN A - skiing on the Rendezvous Trails in town.  All Festival and Clinic schedules are a go.  See Grooming Report for snow/trail conditions.  See you soon!

​November 11, 2016 3:45PM:  At present, there is no snow on the ski trails, but the surfaces have been rolled and ready for when the flakes do start to fly.  Forecasts from PowderChasers.com is calling for 6”-10” of snow by the end of next week in Southern Montana.

Yellowstone Ski Festival staff is planning for 3 different scenarios:  A – Skiing on groomed Rendezvous Ski Trails; B – skiing on groomed South Plateau trails; C – no skiing at either location.  While everyone is hopeful for Plan A or Plan B, YSF staff won’t leave you hanging!  Check out the rough details for the alternate plans below:
 
Plan B:  In the event that there is not enough snow on the Rendezvous Ski Trails, the ski events will move to the secondary venue of the South Plateau.  The Friday and Saturday races would still take place, each being a 9k point-to-point race.  On Snow Gear Demos will move to the Plateau, as well.  Après Ski events will remain at the Rendezvous Ski Trails trailhead area.  Shuttle buses will run from town to the Plateau trailheads and there will be parking for vehicles.
 
Plan C:  In the event that there is not enough snow on the South Plateau to hold the races, Yellowstone Ski Festival will host the following events:
  • Wednesday: 
    • Summer Biathlon – A running biathlon for IBU and Novice classes will be held on the Rendezvous Ski Trails.
    • Rollerski Sprint – Depending on the state of the roads, a rollerski race will be held in the afternoon at the Bakers Hole Campground, just a couple miles outside of town.  Prize money will be awarded to the top finishers. 
  • Friday:  Trail Run on the Rendezvous Ski Trails
    • The distances options will be 10k, 5k, and 2k.  Prize money will be awarded to the top finishers. 
  • Saturday:  Rollerski Distance Race
    • Location is still to be determined.  Prize money will be awarded to the top finishers. 
  • Indoor Expo and all evening activities at the Holiday Inn will take place as scheduled.
  • Apres Ski and S’mores will take place at the Trailhead Area as scheduled.
  • On Snow Demo is to be determined.
 
Refund Policies:  
  • All trail passes are non-refundable and non-transferable.  No rain checks will be issued.
  • Race registrations:
    • Biathlon:  If the venue moves to the South Plateau, the Race Committee may choose to cancel the races or to hold a Summer (Running) biathlon.  If the race is canceled, all registrations will be partially refunded (after race expenses are covered).  
    • USSA/FIS races (Friday & Saturday):  If the venue moves to the South Plateau and the races are held in the alternate format, no refunds will be issued.  If the ski races are canceled and running races are held instead, all registrations will be partially refunded (after race expenses are covered).  Registrations may transfer to the running and/or rollerski race registration, but registration in the running or rollerski race will not be assumed.  Athletes must transfer or register for the rollerski and running races.  
    • Master & Junior races (Saturday):  If the venue moves to the South Plateau and the races are held in the alternate format, no refunds will be issued.  If the ski races are canceled and running races are held instead, all registrations will be partially refunded (after race expenses are covered).  Registrations may transfer to the running and/or rollerski race registration, but registration in the running or rollerski race will not be assumed.  Athletes must transfer or register for the rollerski and running races.  
    • Clinics:  more information to come.
