Spaulding meadows had perfect crust cruising conditions yesterday. The Spaulding trail is frozen and firm. Only grippers needed for the hike up. Skate skiing was excellent all over the meadows. Get up there early for best conditions. Happy Spring!Feb 7, 2022 | Backcountry
Soft, wet squishy snow with many a bare spot, only skied into the first meadow and turned around d due to wet extremities.Jan 12, 2022 | Mendenhall Campground, Mendenhall Lake, Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen, N. Douglas Pioneer Road, Eaglecrest, Eagle Beach, Backcountry
I think the title is straight forward. As a groomer, passing the buck on not picking up your own poo (your dog, your poo) is insulting. Sure, CONVENIENCE of having poo bags and trash cans provided for you is nice. But it is just that- a convenience. AS THE DOG OWNER,...Dec 28, 2021 | Backcountry
Back country skiing on Treadwell yesterday from Blueberry Hills parking lot towards Nielsen Çreek. A fluffy smooth, two feet of light stuff on the trail, and been brushed of any overhanging brush/trees all the way to Nielsen Ck. Best conditions I can remember in...Apr 20, 2021 | Backcountry
Spaulding to Peterson traverse was firm and sweet yesterday. Walked to the meadows below Muir cabin then skied to within about a mile of the Peterson trailhead.Apr 7, 2021 | Backcountry
2” of powder atop the firm crust made great touring.Mar 19, 2021 | Backcountry
Walk up past the water tank and the grooming starts at the end of the plowed road. Rolled it yesterday and it’s decent for classic, a bit narrow and chunky for skating, but today’s new snow will help. Should get set again later this afternoon.Feb 17, 2021 | Backcountry
Follow the blue blazes (diamonds) down to Peterson Lake instead of the packed trail that leads to creek skiing and bush whacking. They divert below the steepest hill ~1/2 mile after making the turn away from Auke Mountain. The 2 miles of forest trail below Peterson...Feb 16, 2021 | Backcountry
Took a few future Olympians up Spaulding to celebrate the eve of Elizabeth Peratrovich Day. Watch out outside of the well packed track, that crust will nip at your ankles! Thankful for light clouds and snow-tracked hearts…Feb 8, 2021 | Backcountry
Mon morn groomed skate & classic as well as trail across the road. It’s brisk but snow & skiing are great! Dress warmly.Jan 5, 2021 | Backcountry
On Sunday the meadows were amazing with 6″ of soft powder atop the old crust from days gone by. Since then we’ve had rain down low but the meadows may still be great.Dec 17, 2020 | Backcountry
Skied on Sunday and there was plenty of snow once you get out of the trees. Had to hike skis up from the John Muir parking lot. Should be great fun with all this new snow!Dec 12, 2020 | Backcountry
Ha, the dike trail has enough packed snow to get you to the wetlands where the wide open greets you with an inch of snow. The snow is heavy enough for a good glide without sticks or rocks, and the patchy fog made for a dreamy ski…
