Arrowhead Nordic trails received 4–6 inches of new snow over the past few days. We’ve snowmobile-packed the Base Area and Westside Trails, as well as most of Blue Mountain Arrowhead, to keep conditions skiable and enjoyable.
Our Bombardier is currently undergoing tiller maintenance, so a full groom (assuming repairs go smoothly) is planned after the next predicted storm — currently forecasted for Tuesday
New Blue Mountain Arrowhead Trails — Community Feedback
We’ve heard fantastic feedback about the new trails, including:
* “Best Nordic trails in Colorado”
* “We had the best time ever”
* “That was so fun!”
We’re thrilled that so many of you are getting out and enjoying the new terrain!
This expansion wouldn’t have been possible without Diana and Jack Gotcher (see attached photo), owners of Blue Mountain Arrowhead Ranch, where the expansion trails are located. Through a land use agreement finalized this summer, we widened and improved existing routes, added new trails, and had some fun naming them.
You’ll spot names like Deer Diana, Jack’s Folly (yes — there’s a story there!), and several Texas A&M references — a nod to their winters and family in Texas and summers here at Blue Mountain. Their generosity and partnership made this possible, and we extend a huge THANK YOU to Jack & Diana!
