7km groomed trail – Lower loop

Eaglecrest lower loop now boasts 7km of groomed trail with the addition of the Dog Loop. Groomed for skate and classic every morning. Upper loop also groomed daily. So much snow!

Lower Loop

I skied at 1130. It was just groomed. Tons and tons of snow. Like skiing on a pillow. Road slushy from Fish Creek bridge to the top, and less so from bridge to N. Douglas Highway.

Same as it ever was

It’s another day of groomed nordic trails at Eaglecrest. Come and get ’em today because tomorrow they will be closed. Upper and lower loops groomed for skate and classic. 30 degrees at the base earlier this morning. Conditions good.
