1/28 Lower Loop essentially unskiable.

There is a short section with a hard base that can be skied but today with temps below freezing it was rock hard and icy. Rest of lower loop bare spots abound. Time for another snow dance!

Lower loop 4k packed by Eaglecrest piston bully

1. Lower parking lot is not being regularly plowed. Do not park there unless you have a high clearance 4 x 4 truck. An SUV is iffy. I think a Subaru will get stuck because of low clearance. I got stuck in my car. The pull out just down the road from the lower parking...

Lower loop

Very nice skating. Set for classic as well. Limited coverage so not everything is groomed.

Lower Loop Icy

Lower Loop very icy

A beautiful day on the lower loop but very icy conditions. Scott did a great job grooming with limited snow. Temp about 26 F so everything is firm & icy & very fast, great for skiers with strong skills but probably not good for beginners.
